Favourite Quotations

The Universe is a machine for the making of Gods
- Henri Bergson

The world is the will to power and nothing besides
- Friedrich Nietzsche

A science which hesitates to forget its founders is lost. It is characteristic of a science in its earlier stages ... to be both ambitiously profound in its aims and trivial in its handling of details. But to come very near to a true theory, and to grasp its precise application, are two very different things, as the history of science teaches us. Every-thing of importance has been said before by some-body who did not discover it.

- Alfred North Whitehead

Les philosophes ne sont pas faits pour s'aimer. Les aigles ne volent point en compagnie. II faut laisser cela aux perdrix, aux etourneaux ... Planer au-dessus et avoir des griffes, voila le lot des grands genies.

- Ferdinando Galiani.
