I have a new philosophy. I'm only going to dread one day at a time.
Charles M. Schulz (1922 - 2000), Charlie Brown in "Peanuts"
There's a difference between a philosophy and a bumper sticker.
Charles M. Schulz (1922 - 2000)
The point of philosophy is to start with something so simple as not to seem worth stating, and to end with something so paradoxical that no one will believe it.
Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970), The Philosophy of Logical Atomism
A fool's brain digests philosophy into folly, science into superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence University education.
George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)
Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language.
Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889 - 1951)
===
Results from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations:
My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.
Oprah Winfrey (1954 - )
I have a simple philosophy. Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. And scratch where it itches.
Alice Roosevelt Longworth (1884 - 1980)
I think we ought always to entertain our opinions with some measure of doubt. I shouldn't wish people dogmatically to believe any philosophy, not even mine.
Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)
They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.
Andy Warhol (1928 - 1987), The Philosophy of Andy Warhol
Wisdom is knowing what to do next; virtue is doing it.
David Starr Jordan (1851 - 1931), The Philosophy of Despair
===
Results from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations:
In Kyudo philosophy, you don't aim--you become one with the target. Then, in fact, there's nothing to aim at. I find it works well with women, too. Give it a try.
Martin Sage and Sybil Adelman, Northern Exposure, The Bumpy Road to Love, 1991
I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce, and agriculture, in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain.
John Adams (1735 - 1826)
To become acquainted with kindness one must be prepared to learn new things and feel new feelings. Kindness is more than a philosophy of the mind. It is a philosophy of the spirit.
Robert J. Furey
Nothing in the world is permanent, and we're foolish when we ask anything to last, but surely we're still more foolish not to take delight in it while we have it. If change is of the essence of existence one would have thought it only sensible to make it the premise of our philosophy.
W. Somerset Maugham (1874 - 1965), The Razor's Edge, 1943
The urge to make art or contemplate philosophy does not go away when you are sick. Those urges just become transfigured by illness.
John Green, The Fault in Our Stars, 2012
===
Results from Classic Quotes:
Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill. I think that there is nothing, not even crime, more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself than this incessant business.
Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862)
The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.
John Kenneth Galbraith (1908 - 2006)
I have gained this by philosophy: that I do without being commanded what others do only from fear of the law.
Aristotle (384 BC - 322 BC), from Diogenes Laertius, Lives of Eminent Philosophers
What is the first business of one who practices philosophy? To get rid of self-conceit. For it is impossible for anyone to begin to learn that which he thinks he already knows.
Epictetus (55 AD - 135 AD), Discourses
Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955), "Science, Philosophy and Religion: a Symposium", 1941
===
Results from Classic Quotes:
There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616), "Hamlet", Act 1 scene 5
Philosophy consists very largely of one philosopher arguing that all others are jackasses. He usually proves it, and I should add that he also usually proves that he is one himself.
H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
The mathematics is not there till we put it there.
Sir Arthur Eddington (1882 - 1944), The Philosophy of Physical Science
For the truth of the conclusions of physical science, observation is the supreme Court of Appeal. It does not follow that every item which we confidently accept as physical knowledge has actually been certified by the Court; our confidence is that it would be certified by the Court if it were submitted. But it does follow that every item of physical knowledge is of a form which might be submitted to the Court. It must be such that we can specify (although it may be impracticable to carry out) an observational procedure which would decide whether it is true or not. Clearly a statement cannot be tested by observation unless it is an assertion about the results of observation. Every item of physical knowledge must therefore be an assertion of what has been or would be the result of carrying out a specified observational procedure.
Sir Arthur Eddington (1882 - 1944), The Philosophy of Physical Science
History is philosophy teaching by example, and also warning; its two eyes are geography and chronology.
James A. Garfield (1831 - 1881)
Leisure is the mother of philosophy.
Thomas Hobbes (1588 - 1679)
True philosophy invents nothing; it merely establishes and describes what is.
Victor Cousin (1792 - 1867)
There is no slavery but ignorance.
Robert Ingersoll (1833 - 1899), The Philosophy of Ingersoll (1906), "Fragments"
Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, just as it is the spirit of a spiritless situation. It is the opium of the people.
Karl Marx (1818 - 1883), Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right
Europe will never be like America. Europe is a product of history. America is a product of philosophy.
Margaret Thatcher (1925 - )

Europe was created by history. America was created by philosophy.
Margaret Thatcher (1925 - )
'Freedom from fear' could be said to sum up the whole philosophy of human rights.
Dag Hammarskjold (1905 - 1961)
Archaeology is the search for fact... not truth. If it's truth you're looking for, Dr. Tyree's philosophy class is right down the hall.
George Lucas (1944 - ), Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, 1989
I went off to college planning to major in math or philosophy-- of course, both those ideas are really the same idea.
Frank Wilczek (1951 - )
There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616), Hamlet, Act I, sc. 5
Every science begins as philosophy and ends as art.
Will Durant (1885 - 1981), The Story of Philosophy, 1926
The decisions of the courts on economic and social questions depend on their economic and social philosophy.

I've developed a new philosophy... I only dread one day at a time.
Charles M. Schulz (1922 - 2000), Charlie Brown
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
Dalai Lama
===
Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:
[F]or academic men to be happy, the universe would have to take shape. All of philosophy has no other goal: it is a matter of giving a frock coat to what is, a mathematical frock coat. On the other hand, affirming that the universe resembles nothing and is only formless amounts to saying that the universe is something like a spider or spit.
Battaille
The society which scorns excellence in plumbing as a humble activity and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because it is an exaulted activity will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy...neither its pipes nor its theories will hold water.
John W. Gardner (1912 - 2002)
A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, But depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion.
Sir Francis Bacon (1561 - 1626)
A fool's brain digests philosophy into folly, science into superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence University education.

Alice Roosevelt Longworth (1884 - 1980)
Philosophy, n. A route of many roads leading from nowhere to nothing.
Ambrose Bierce (1842 - 1914), The Devil's Dictionary

Results from Poor Man's College:
Do all the work you can; that is the whole philosophy of the good way of life.
Eugene Delacroix (1798 - 1863)
Religion is a man using a divining rod. Philosophy is a man using a pick and shovel.
Author Unknown
Philosophy triumphs easily over past evils and future evils; but present evils triumph over it.
Francois De La Rochefoucauld (1613 - 1680)
A great philosophy is not one that passes final judgments and establishes ultimate truth. It is one that causes uneasiness and starts commotion.

Any genuine philosophy leads to action and from action back again to wonder, to enduring fact of mystery.
Henry Miller (1891 - 1980)
True philosophy invents nothing; it merely establishes and describes what is.
Victor Cousin (1792 - 1867)

Henry Ward Beecher (1813 - 1887)
We do not learn by inference and deduction and the application of mathematics to philosophy, but by direct intercourse and sympathy.
Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862)
