John   Gray
“The source of philosophy is anxiety, and cats do not suffer from anxiety unless they are threatened or find themselves in a strange place. For humans, the world itself is a threatening and strange place. Religions are attempts to make an inhuman universe humanly habitable. Philosophers have often dismissed these faiths as being far beneath their own metaphysical speculations, but religion and philosophy serve the same need.1 Both try to fend off the abiding disquiet that goes with being human.”
John N. Gray, Feline Philosophy: Cats and the Meaning of Life

John S. Couch
“Design exists to solve problems. That is its truth.
Art is there to pose problems. That is its truth.”
John S. Couch, The Art of Creative Rebellion: How to champion creativity, change culture and save your soul

Mark Manson
“The problem isn’t that we don’t know how not to get punched in the face. The problem is that, at some point, likely a long time ago, we got punched in face, and instead of punching back, we decided we deserved it.”
Mark Manson, Everything Is F*cked: A Book About Hope

Filippo Tommaso Marinetti
“Our poetry is courage, audacity and revolt.”
Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, Manifesti Futuristi (1909-1941)

John   Gray
“Killing and dying for nonsensical ideas is how many human beings have made sense of their lives.”
John N. Gray, Feline Philosophy: Cats and the Meaning of Life
