—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“One reason why we find so few men of reasonable and agreeable conversation is that there is scarcely anyone whose mind is not more intent upon what he himself has a mind to say than on making pertinent replies to what is being said to him.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“A propositional sign, applied and thought out, is a thought. A thought is a proposition with a sense.”
