"Philosophy: A route of many roads leading from nowhere to nothing."
Ambrose Bierce
"Probable impossibilities are to be preferred to improbable possibilities."
Aristotle
"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."
Albert Einstein
"The only secure knowledge is that I exist."
Rene Descartes
"The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next."
Henry Ward Beecher
"The point of philosophy is to start with something so simple as not to seem worth stating, and to end with something so paradoxical that no one will believe it."
Bertrand Russell
"There is but one truly serious philosophical problem, and that is suicide. Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy."
Albert Camus
"There is nothing so absurd but some philosopher has said it."
Marcus Tullius Cicero
"To be a philosopher is not merely to have subtle thoughts; but so to love wisdom as to live according to its dictates."
Henry Thoreau
"To ridicule philosophy is really to philosophize."
Blaise Pascal
"To teach how to live with uncertainty, yet without being paralyzed by hesitation, is perhaps the chief thing that philosophy can do."
Bertrand Russell
"We can only reason from what is; we can reason on actualities, but not on possibilities."
Thomas Paine
"What do you know and how do you know it?"
Ayn Rand
"When I study philosophical works I feel I am swallowing something which I don't have in my mouth."
Albert Einstein
"Why is it that you physicists always require so much expensive equipment? Now the Department of Mathematics requires nothing but money for paper, pencils, and erasers...and the Department of Philosophy is better still. It doesn't even ask for erasers."
Isaac Asimov
"You cannot go on 'explaining away' for ever: you will find that you have explained explanation itself away. You cannot go on 'seeing through' things for ever. The whole point of seeing through something is to see something through it."
C.S. Lewis
