Famous quotes containing the words mental and/or philosophy:
“It was at a particular moment in the history of my own rages that I saw the Western world conditioned by the images of Marx, Darwin and Freud; and Marx, Darwin and Freud are the three most crashing bores of the Western world. The simplistic popularization of their ideas has thrust our world into a mental straitjacket from which we can only escape by the most anarchic violence.”
—William Golding (b. 1911)
“The philosophy of hedonism means little to lovers of pleasure. They have no inclination to read philosophy, or to write it.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
