Søren Kierkegaard
“Marry, and you will regret it; don’t marry, you will also regret it; marry or don’t marry, you will regret it either way. Laugh at the world’s foolishness, you will regret it; weep over it, you will regret that too; laugh at the world’s foolishness or weep over it, you will regret both. Believe a woman, you will regret it; believe her not, you will also regret it… Hang yourself, you will regret it; do not hang yourself, and you will regret that too; hang yourself or don’t hang yourself, you’ll regret it either way; whether you hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both. This, gentlemen, is the essence of all philosophy.”
Søren Kierkegaard

“Proximity to power deludes some into thinking they wield it.”
Frank Underwood

Protagoras
“Man is the measure of all things”
Protagoras

“History is earned. You win the day, and then you win the day after, and you do the same thing every day until you’re dead. And you’re remembered not for the winning, but because you never lost.”
Frank Underwood, House of Cards

Milton Friedman
“.'Deserves' is an impossible thing to decide. No one deserves anything. Thank God we don't get what we deserve.”
Milton Friedman
