Why Shouldnt Things Be Largely Absurd, Futile,

A Great Man Need Not Be Virtuous, Nor His Opinions Right, But He Must Have A Firm Mind, A Distinctive Luminous Character.

I Believe In The Possibility Of Happiness, If One Cultivates Intuition And Outlives The Grosser Passions, Including Optimism.

The Difficult Is That Which Can Be Done Immediately; The Impossible That Which Takes A Little Longer.

The Effort Of Art Is To Keep What Is Interesting In Existence, To Recreate It In The Eternal.

You Cannot Prove Realism To A Complete Sceptic Or Idealist; But You Can Show An Honest Man That He Is Not A Complete Sceptic Or Idealist, But A Realist At Heart. So Long As He Is Alive His Sincere Philosophy Must Fulfil The Assumptions Of His Life And Not Destroy Him.
