Philosophy: Impersonal anxiety; refuge among anemic ideas.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There's a constant anxiety that comes from having an innate sense of self, yet existing within a homogenised, aspirational culture.
As every student in Philosophy 101 learns, nothing can force me to believe that anyone except me is conscious. This power to deny that other people have feelings is not just an academic exercise but an all-too-common vice, as we see in the long history of human cruelty.
Anxiety is the beginning of conscience, which is the parent of the soul but is not compatible with innocence.
Anxiety is the handmaiden of creativity.
Anxiety is part of creativity, the need to get something out, the need to be rid of something or to get in touch with something within.
I've had a couple of odd experiences - unexplainable anxiety that came my way through a belief in something... I mean, it sounds cryptic, but... anything for me that turns myself against myself, I stay away from.
There are moments when all anxiety and stated toil are becalmed in the infinite leisure and repose of nature.
There is great beauty in going through life without anxiety or fear. Half our fears are baseless, and the other half discreditable.
Abstainer: a weak person who yields to the temptation of denying himself a pleasure.
Anxiety is the hand maiden of creativity.
