Difficult Problems

Famous quotes containing the words difficult and/or problems:

    Our vanity wishes precisely what we do best to be regarded as what is most difficult to us. On the origin of many a morality.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The problems of the world, AIDS, cancer, nuclear war, pollution, are, finally, no more solvable than the problem of a tree which has borne fruit: the apples are overripe and they are falling—what can be done?... Nothing can be done, and nothing needs to be done. Something is being done—the organism is preparing to rest.
    David Mamet (b. 1947)
