Thomas Aquinas
“We must love them both, those whose opinions we share and those whose opinions we reject, for both have labored in the search for truth, and both have helped us in finding it.”
St. Thomas Aquinas

Slavoj Žižek
“Beyond the fiction of reality, there is the reality of the fiction.”
Slavoj Žižek, Less Than Nothing: Hegel and the Shadow of Dialectical Materialism

Slavoj Žižek
“Without the communist oppression, I am absolutely sure I would now be a local stupid professor of philosophy in Ljubljana.”
Slavoj Žižek

Slavoj Žižek
“Yeah, because I'm extremely romantic here. You know what is my fear? This postmodern, permissive, pragmatic etiquette towards sex. It's horrible. They claim sex is healthy; it's good for the heart, for blood circulation, it relaxes you. They even go into how kissing is also good because it develops the muscles here – this is horrible, my God! It's no longer that absolute passion. I like this idea of sex as part of love, you know: 'I'm ready to sell my mother into slavery just to fuck you for ever.' There is something nice, transcendent, about it. I remain incurably romantic.”
Slavoj Žižek

Slavoj Žižek
“I think that the task of philosophy is not to provide answers, but to show how the way we perceive a problem can be itself part of a problem.”
Slavoj Žižek
