Byung-Chul Han
“Tegenwoordig denken we dat we geen onderworpen subject zijn maar een vrij, zich telkens ontwerpend, nieuw uitvindend project. Deze overgang van subject naar project gaat gepaard met het gevoel van vrijheid. Nu ontpopt dit project zich als een figuur van dwang, zelfs als een efficiëntere vorm van subjectivering en onderwerping. Het Ik als project, dat zich denkt bevrijd te hebben van uiterlijke en andermans dwang, onderwerpt zich voortaan aan innerlijke dwang en zelfdwang in de vorm van prestatie- en optimalisatiedrang.”
Byung-Chul Han

John Maynard Keynes
“Even apart from the instability due to speculation, there is the instability due to the characteristic of human nature that a large proportion of our positive activities depend on spontaneous optimism rather than mathematical expectations, whether moral or hedonistic or economic. Most, probably, of our decisions to do something positive, the full consequences of which will be drawn out over many days to come, can only be taken as the result of animal spirits—a spontaneous urge to action rather than inaction, and not as the outcome of a weighted average of quantitative benefits multiplied by quantitative probabilities.”
John Maynard Keynes

Fernando Pessoa
“Only one thing surprises me more than the stupidity with which most men live their lives and that is the intellegence inherent in that stupidity. [...] The wise man makes his life monotonous, for then even the tiniest accident becomes imbued with great significance.”
Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet

Albert Camus
“The literal meaning of life is whatever you're doing that prevents you from killing yourself.”
Albert Camus

Douglas Hurd
“Prison is an expensive way of making bad people worse.”
Douglas Hurd
