Philosophy Quotes

The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.

Oscar Wilde

You are not thinking. You are merely being logical.

Niels Bohr

Philosophy (...) hasn`t progressed in two thousand years.

Lawrence M. Krauss

Nature consults no philosophers.

John Walker

I think too much. I think ahead. I think behind. I think sideways.

Winona Ryder

If we read of one man robbed, or murdered, or killed by accident, or one house burned, or one vessel wrecked, or one steamboat blown up, or one cow run over on the Western Railroad, or one mad dog killed, or one lot of grasshoppers in the winter, - we need never read of another. One is enough. If you are acquainted with the principle, what do you care for a myriad instances and applications? To a philosopher all news, as it is called, is gossip, and they who edit and read it are old women over their tea.

Henry David Thoreau
