Marcus Lira

“You see, gentlemen, reason is an excellent thing, there’s no disputing that, but reason is nothing but reason and satisfies only the rational side of man’s nature, while will is a manifestation of the whole life, that is, of the whole human life including reason and all the impulses. And although our life, in this manifestation of it, is often worthless, yet it is life and not simply extracting square roots.”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky, Notes from Underground

“Reason is, and ought only to be the slave of the passions.”
― David Hume

“I am my world.”
― Ludwig Wittgenstein

“Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”
― Søren Kierkegaard
