I believe that we are all, openly or secretly, struggling against one or another kind of nihilism.

Famously, there's not really anywhere to go after nihilism. It's not progressing toward anything, it's a statement of outrage, however brilliant.

If you don't believe what other people believe, then they'll accuse you of being nihilistic.

Opposition is not necessarily enmity; it is merely misused and made an occasion for enmity.

I think you can get to a point where nihilism, if that's the right word, is overwhelming, and the basic laws that society has set up - either religious or social laws - become meaningless.

Yes, I'm reckless and sometime express no concern for my own well being, and I express a misanthropic view of the world, but to have an opinion, you can't be a nihilist.

Ultimately, because I'm an artist, I can't ever consider myself a nihilist, so I suppose I'm optimistic.

That my philosophy of life is, as far as possible, one of enjoyment. I'm not nihilistic.

I personally don't live a nihilistic life, I don't have any use for it.

Intemperance and intolerance serve no one, and hatred guarantees failure.
