Wealth is like sea-water; the more we drink, the thirstier we become; and the same is true of fame.
Arthur SchopenhauerFor an act to be moral the intention must be based on compassion, not duty. We do something because we want to do it, because we feel we have to do it, not because we ought to do it. And even if our efforts fail - or we never even get to implement them - we are still moral because our motivation was based on compassion.
Arthur SchopenhauerThe greatest intellectual capacities are only found in connection with a vehement and passionate will.
