“Whoever invented the concept of fairness, anyway? Isn't everything easier if you simply get rid of the idea of justice altogether? You think the quantity of pleasure, the degree of suffering is constant among all men?”
“To think about fairness, think of economic life as a game - a serious game. All ideas about fairness can be divided into two broad groups. They are:- It isn't fair if the result isn't fair.- It isn't fair if the rules aren't fair.”
“We have tried everything to get rid of suffering. We have gone everywhere to get rid of suffering. We have bought everything to get rid of it. We have ingested everything to get rid of it. Finally, when one has tried enought, there arises the possibility of spiritual maturity with the willingness to stop the futile attempt to get rid of it and, instead, to actually experience suffering. In that momentous instant, there is the realization of that which is beyond suffering, of that which is untouched by suffering. There is the realization of who one truly is."-Gangaji”
“Common sense isn't a real thing. And its ugly cousin, fairness, is a concept invented so dumb people could participate in arguments.”
“Anyway it was an idea of mother's and she often used to repeat it, that you ended up getting used to everything.”
“People are always complaining that life's not fair, but that simply isn't true. Life is extraordinarily fair. It's just not centered on you.”
