“Why do you seek a hell in the next world? Is not the hell in which we live and which burns inside us sufficiently dreadful”

“No man can see over his own height. Let me explain what I mean. You cannot see in another man any more than you have in yourself. Your own level strictly determines the extent to which he comes within your understanding. If your intelligence is unawakened, mental qualities in another, even though they be of the highest kind, will have no effect on you at all… his higher mental qualities will no more exist for you than colors exist for those who cannot see.”
― Arthur Schopenhauer

“The future is to be conquered, the present ridiculed, and the past outdone." Voltaire Almighty”
― Roger Pearson

“The main vehicle for nineteenth-century socialization was the leading textbook used in elementary school. They were so widely used that sections in them became part of the national language. Theodore Roosevelt, scion of an elite New York family, schooled by private tutors, had been raised on the same textbooks as the children of Ohio farmers, Chicago tradesman, and New England fishermen. If you want to know what constituted being a good American from the mid-nineteenth century to World War I, spend a few hours browsing through the sections in the McGuffey Readers.”
― Charles Murray, Coming Apart: The State of White America, 1960-2010
