Goodness of pudding is in eating.


Observe calmly; secure our positions; cope with affairs calmly; hide our capabilities and bide our time; be good at maintaining a low profile; and never claim leadership

The great things in life is to take risks.

The things that was to discover what one was and one system of philosophy would devise itself. The three things to find out; man’s relation to the world he lives in, man’s relation with the men among whom he lives, and finally man’s relation to himself.

The advantage of living abroad is that, coming in contact with the manners and customs of the people among whom you live, you observe them from the outside and see that they have not the necessity which those who practice them believe.
Nothing was good and nothing was evil; things were merely adapted to an end.

There is nothing so degrading as the constant anxiety about one’s means of livelihood. I have nothing but contempt for the people who despise money. They are hypocrites or fools. Money is like a sixth sense without which you cannot make a complete use of the other five. Without an adequate income half the possibilities of life are shut off. The only thing to be careful about is that you do not pay more than a shilling for the shilling you earn. You will hear people say that poverty is best spur to the artist. They have never felt the iron of it in their flesh. They do not know how mean it makes you. It exposes you to endless humiliation, it cuts your wings, it eats into your soul like a cancer. It is not wealth one asks for, but just enough to preserve one’s dignity, to work unhampered, to be generous, frank, and independent.

Take you courage in both hands and try your luck at something else.

Your money matter have nothing to do with me now. You’re your own master; but I think you should remember that your money won’t last for ever, and the unlucky deformity you have doesn’t exactly make it easier for you to earn you living.

Might was right. Society stood on one side, an organism with its own laws of growth and self-preservation, while the individual stood on the other.

Good and evil meant nothing more than that. Sin was a prejudice from which the free man should rid himself. Society had three arms in its contest with the individual, laws, public opinion, and conscience: the first tow could be met by guile, guile is the only weapon of the weak against the strong: common opinion put the matter well when it stated that sin consisted in being found out; but conscience was the traitor within the gates; it fought in each heart the battle of society, and caused the individual to throw himself, wanton sacrifice, to the prosperity of his enemy.

I have an idea that I’m more interested in people that in anything else in the world. And as far as I can see, it’s the only profession in which you have your freedom. You carry your knowledge in your head; with a box of instruments an a few drugs you can make your living anywhere.
I don’t think of the future. As long as I have enough money for three weeks rent and a pound or two over for food I never bother. Life wouldn’t be worth living if I worried over the future as well as the present. When things are at their worst I find something always happens.

I’m one of the few persons I ever met who are able to learn from experience.
I’m unfit for the brutality of the struggle of life. All I can do is to stand aside and let the vulgar throng bustle by in their pursuit of the good things.

I can only speak for myself. The illusion of free will is so strong in my mind that I can’t get away from it, but I believe it is only an illusion. But it is an illusion which is one of the strongest motives of my actions. Before I do anything I feel that I have choice, and that influences what I do; but afterwards, when the thing is done, I believe that it inevitable from all eternity.

My motto is, leave me alone; I don’t want anymore interfering with me; I’ll make the best of a bad job, and the devil take the hindmost.

I believe that life is a mess. It is like yeast, a ferment, a thing that moves and may move for a minute, an hour, a year, or a hundred years, but that in the end will cease to move. The big eat the little that they may continue to move, the strong eat the weak that they may retain their strength. The lucky eat the most and move the longest, that’s all. What do you make of those things.

Might is right, and that is all there is to it. Weakness is wrong. Which is a very poor way of saying that it weak- or better yet, it is pleasurable to be strong, because of the profits; painful to be weak, because of the penalties. Just now the possessions of this money is a pleasurable thing. It is good for one to possess it. Being able to posses it, I wrong my self and the life that is in me if I give it to you and forego the pleasure of possessing it.

An altruistic act is an act performed for the welfare of other….

First a man must act for his own benefit to do this to moral and good. Next he must act for the benefit of his children, and third he must act for the benefit of his race. Ant the highest, finest, right conduct.

Fear and hatred and pain were my only soul experience.

No man makes opportunity. All the great man ever did was to know it when it came to them.
All the happier for leaving life a lone, too busy living it to think about it. My mistake was in ever opening the books.

I had learned to look more closely at life as it was lived, to recognized that there were such things as facts in the world, to emerge from the realm of mind and idea and to place certain values on the concrete an objective phase of existence.

Here at least
We shall be free; the almighty hat not built
Here for his envy; will not drive us hence;
Here w may reign secure; and in my choice
To reign is worth ambition, though in hell;
Better to reign in hell than serve in heaven.
