Rainer Maria Rilke
“Most of my life has been spent not understanding, and I can assure you, it was not easy.”
Rilke

Slavoj Žižek
“I despise the kind of book which tells you how to live, how to make yourself happy! Philosophers have no good news for you at this level! I believe the first duty of philosophy is making you understand what deep shit you are in!”
Slavoj Žižek

Ernest Hemingway
“The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.”
Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms

Nassim Nicholas Taleb
“A good book gets better on the second reading. A great book on the third. Any book not worth rereading isn’t worth reading.”
Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms

Søren Kierkegaard
“People settle for a level of despair they can tolerate and call it happiness.”
Søren Kierkegaard
