"A pessimist is an optimist in full..." - Quote by Arthur Schopenhauer

“Knowledge is to certain extent a second existence.”

“Every satisfaction he attains lays the seeds of some new desire, so that there is no end to the wishes of each individual will.”

“A man finds himself, to his great astonishment, suddenly existing, after thousands and thousands of years of non-existence: he lives for a little while; and then, again, comes an equally long period when he must exist no more. The heart rebels against this, and feels that it cannot be true.”

“Never to have lived is best, ancient writers say. Never to have drawn the breath of life, never to have looked into the eye of day; The second best's a gay goodnight and quickly turn away.”

“Pessimist: The optimist who didn't arrive.”

“No horse named Morbid ever won a race.”

“I've had rainbows in my clouds.”

“All is for the best in the best of all possible worlds.”

“I climb upon the highest mountains, laughing at all tragedies - whether real or imaginary.”
