“If you believe Might is Right, it follows that whoever cannot hold their ground does not deserve to keep it.”
“Whoever does not believe himself always lies.”
“As long as you keep a person down, some part of you has to be down there to hold him down, so it means you cannot soar as you otherwise might.”
“Nobody deserves your tears, but whoever deserves them will not make you cry.”
“We cannot ultimately specify the grounds (either metaphysical or logical or empirical) upon which we hold that our knowledge is true. Being committed to such grounds, dwelling in them, we are projecting ourselves to what we believe to be true from or through these grounds. We cannot therefore see what they are. We cannot look at them because we are looking with them.”
“We deserve to reach for the stars, even if our bodies wish to keep us firmly planted on the ground.”
