Naturally, I'm misanthropic. But the Negronis are helping considerably.
At the peak of the so-called great success of neoliberal economics, in 2007, right before the crash, non-supervisory workers were at wages considerably lower than in 1979, when the neoliberal assault was taking off. That perfectly naturally causes resentment and fear, and combines with a tendency to blame the most vulnerable.
If you don't have an outlet, you become a criminal - or misanthropic.
I don't make cocktails with whisky. I'll always drink it with a little bit of water. I love Negronis early on, but for me drinking whisky is something I do at the end of an evening. It's a midnight-to-3-a.m. drink for me.
I think there are some artists whose works are misanthropic.
There is a natural and inviolable tendency in things to bloom into whatever they truly are in the core of their being. All we have to do is align ourselves with what wants to happen naturally and put in the effort that is our part in helping it happen.
I am a misanthropic humanist... Do I like people? They're great, IN THEORY.
The responsibility I have is a great thing, from helping tennis grow in Canada, but also in the future, being able to do stuff through my foundation, helping kids, and helping everyone I can, and really trying to make a difference. It would be a shame to be in the spotlight, have a voice and not do much with it.
I helped my mom raise so many little sisters. At 11, I was helping get them ready for school, watching over them, putting them to sleep. It's just naturally with me.
I find myself bitter, defensive, and more misanthropic than I care to admit.
I thought it would be fun to make a cartoon about this sad, misanthropic horse.
I really enjoy my philanthropic work, traveling around the world and helping people in need. That's a lot of fun for me. It's really rewarding. You're helping people, but it's helping you, too. It puts life in perspective...
By helping yourself, you are helping humankind. By helping humankind, you are helping yourself. That's the law of all spiritual progress.
But what really is immorality? And what does helping someone really mean? Helping them to be like everyone else, or helping them to be themselves?
Every time you help someone else, not only are you helping that person, but you are helping every person they touch, AND you are helping yourself - because we are all ONE.
The debate about climate change in many ways is tied to the petroleum industry. If the value of petroleum was considerably less than it is, and the value of coal was considerably less than it is, there would be much less debate about this.
I shouldn't still be working out how to be misanthropic singleton comic when I'm 60. I should have moved on by then.
