Poor dear: you've understood that thinking means suffering, that being intelligent means to be unhappy. Pity you missed out on a third fundamental point: pain is the salt of life and without it we wouldn't be human.

Wake up, people. Wake up! Intimidated as you are by your fear of going against the current - that is, appearing racist (a word which is entirely inapt as we are speaking not about a race but about a religion) - you don't understand or don't want to understand that a reverse–Crusade is in progress. Accustomed as you are to the double–cross, blinded as you are by myopia, you don't understand or don't want to understand that a war of religion is in progress. Desired and declared by a fringe of that religion, perhaps, but a war of religion nonetheless. A war which they call Jihad. Holy War.

You don't understand or don't want to understand that if we don't oppose them, if we don't defend ourselves, if we don't fight, the Jihad will win. And it will destroy the world that for better or worse we've managed to build, to change, to improve, to render a little more intelligent, that is to say, less bigoted - or even not bigoted at all. And with that it will destroy our culture, our art, our science, our morals, our values, our pleasures.

"There are millions better than him!"
"There are millions better than me. In any case I don't know those better than him and I can't consume my life waiting to meet them. And we should, then, search for perfection in a man, you'd love saints. Saints are dead and I don't go to bed with calendars."

in Quotes & Aphorisms (Life)
Life is a rocky road, rocks on which you trip, you fall, you hurt yourself.
Rocks against which you must protect yourself with iron shoes. But no even this is enough because while you protect your feet there's always someone who pick up a rock to hit you on the head with.

Man's history is firstly and mainly a history of courage: proof that lacking courage you don't do anything, that if you don't have courage not even intelligence can help.

The ignorant must be used cautiously and the illiterate should be prohibited from doing propaganda.

in Quotes & Aphorisms (Wisdom)
Our logic is full of contradictions. As soon as you state something, you see the opposite. And maybe you realize that the contrary is as valid as what you stated.
