Quote by -Arthur Schopenhauer
Suffering by nature or chance never seems so painful as suffering inflicted on us by the arbitrary will of another.
Quote by -Arthur Schopenhauer
A man can be himself only so long as he is alone, and if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom, for it is only when he is alone that he is really free.
Quote by -Arthur Schopenhauer
National character is only another name for the particular form which the littleness, perversity and baseness of mankind take in every country. Every nation mocks at other nations, and all are right.
Quote by -Arthur Schopenhauer

Quote by -Arthur Schopenhauer

Quote by -Arthur Schopenhauer

Quote by -Arthur Schopenhauer

Quote by -Arthur Schopenhauer
Because people have no thoughts to deal in, they deal cards, and try and win one another's money. Idiots!
