“Let no one who loves be called altogether unhappy. Even love unreturned has its rainbow - James Matthew Barrie”

“Let no one who loves be called altogether unhappy. Even love unreturned has its rainbow.”

“Our love was perfect. We were not.”

“A philosophical thought is not supposed to be impervious to all criticism; this is the error Whitehead describes of turning philosophy into geometry, and it is useful primarily as a way of gaining short-term triumphs in personal arguments that no one else cares (or even knows) about anyway. A good philosophical thought will always be subject to criticisms (as Heidegger’s or Whitehead’s best insights all are) but they are of such elegance and depth that they change the terms of debate, and function as a sort of “obligatory passage point” (Latour’s term) in the discussions that follow.Or in other words, the reason Being and Time is still such a classic, with hundreds of thousands or millions of readers almost a century later, is not because Heidegger made “fewer mistakes” than others of his generation. Mistakes need to be cleaned up, but that is not the primary engine of personal or collective intellectual progress.”

“إن الناس دائما قادرون على اضفاء تفاسير متنوعة على الأفكار الدينية التى يعتنقونها، تعتمد على موقعهم المادي وعلاقتهم بالآخرين والصراعات التى ينخرطون فيها.”

“The dream was floating off satisfactorily on an inner sea.”

“As the poet says, all happy couples are alike, it's the unhappy ones who create the stories. I'm no longer a story. Happiness has made me fade into real life.”
