All are lunatics, but he who can analyze his delusions is called a philosopher.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
What can you do against the lunatic who is more intelligent than yourself, who gives your arguments a fair hearing and then simply persists in his lunacy?
Sometimes the person who is the most logical is the person whom we call insane.
One can only become a philosopher, but not be one. As one believes he is a philosopher, he stops being one.
There are few circumstances which so strongly distinguish the philosopher, as the calmness with which he can reply to criticisms he may think undeservedly severe.
Philosophers are people who do violence, but have no army at their disposal, and so subjugate the world by locking it into a system.
There is nothing so absurd that some philosopher has not already said it.
I always think that people who are - maybe 'insane' is too strong a word, but there's more of a spiritual connection. Sometimes they can see below the surface.
A philosopher who is not taking part in discussions is like a boxer who never goes into the ring.
Only as an individual can man become a philosopher.
I guess the definition of a lunatic is a man surrounded by them.
