Famous quotes containing the words stoic and/or philosophers:

    So-called “austerity,” the stoic injunction, is the path towards universal destruction. It is the old, the fatal, competitive path. “Pull in your belt” is a slogan closely related to “gird up your loins,” or the guns-butter metaphor.
    Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)

    Two half philosophers will probably never a whole metaphysician make.
    Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)
