Freethinkers are those who are willing to
use their minds without prejudice and
without fearing to understand things that
clash with their own customs, privileges,
or beliefs. This state of mind is not common,
but it is essential for right thinking.
Leo Tolstoy
Everything that irritates us about others
can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.
Carl Jung
If you do not say a thing in an irritating way,
you may as well not say it at all
because people will not trouble themselves
about anything that does not trouble them.
George Bernard Shaw
Few people are capable of expressing with
equanimity opinions which differ from
the prejudices of their social environment.
Most people are even incapable of
forming such opinions.
Albert Einstein
Five minutes after your born, they will decide
your tribe, and you will spend the rest of your
life defending things you didn't choose.
Arthur Schopenhauer
People who say things like "I can't worry
about animals when there are humans
who need help" tend to do f*ck all
to help humans neither...
Kindness is kindness. Simple as that.
Ricky Gervais
The minority is generelly formed by those who
really have an opinion, while the strenght
of the majority is illusory, formed by
the gangs who have no opinion.
Soren Kierkegaard
It's easy to stand in the crowd
but it takes courage to stand alone.
Mahatma Gandhi
The question is not whether we will be extremists,
but what kind of extremists we will be. For hate
or for love? For the preservation of injustice
or for the extension of justice?
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Do not go where the path may lead. Go instead
where there is no path and leave a trail.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
What the herd hates most is the one who thinks
differently; it is not so much the opinion itself,
but the audacity of wanting to think
for themselves, something that they
do not know how to do.
Arthur Schopenhauer
I don't want to talk, to communicate, with
someone who agrees with me; I want to
communicate with you because
you see it differently.
Stephen Covey
Two percent of the people think.
Three percent of the people think they think.
And ninty-five percent of the people
would rather die than think.
George Bernard Shaw
True morality consists not in following
the beaten track, but in finding the true path
for ourselves, and fearlessly following it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Progress is impossible without change,
and those who cannot change their minds
cannot change anything.
George Bernard Shaw
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world;
the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt
the world to himself. Therefore all progress
depends on the unreasonable man.
George Bernard Shaw
