"Those thoughts are truth which guide us..." - Quote by William James

“A little cooling down of animal excitability and instinct, a little loss of animal toughness, a little irritable weakness and descent of the pain-threshold, will bring the worm at the core of all our usual springs of delight into full view, and turn us into melancholy metaphysicians.”

“The war against war is going to be no holiday excursion or camping party.”

“No reception without reaction, no impression without correlative expression, -this is the great maxim which the teacher ought never to forget.”

“Truth and ceremony are two things.”

“Good philosophy must exist, if for no other reason, because bad philosophy needs to be answered.”

“Past all shame, so past all truth.”

“You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts; And when you can no longer dwell in the solitude of your heart you live in your lips, and sound is a diversion and a pastime. And in much of your talking, thinking is half murdered.”

“To consider hypotheses is surely always better than to dogmatize ins blaue hinein”

“Light up the fire of love inside and blaze the thoughts away.”
