Philosophy stands in the same relation to the study of the actual world as masturbation to sexual love.

There is more wisdom in your body than in your deepest philosophy.

Philosophy starts by legislating greatness.

Every philosophy is the philosophy of some stage of life.

My philosophy is inverted Platonism: the further a thing is from true being, the purer, the lovelier, the better it is. Living in illusion as a goal!

There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
