I believe in evolution in the sense that a short-tempered man is the successor of a crybaby.

Absurdity is the ecstasy of intellectualism.

An exceedingly confident student would in theory make a terrible student. Why would he take school seriously when he feels that he can outwit his teachers?

Sometimes it takes a lowly, title-less man to humble the world. Kings, rulers, CEOs, judges, doctors, pastors, they are already expected to be greater and wiser.

When you have wit of your own, it's a pleasure to credit other people for theirs.

Never hide things from hardcore thinkers. They get more aggravated, more provoked by confusion than the most painful truths.

It's much easier on the emotions when one sees life as an experiment rather than a struggle for popularity.
