Whether we will philosophize or we won't philosophize, we must philosophize.
To philosophize with open eyes is to philosophize in the dark. Only the blind can look straight at the sun.
Whoever does not philosophize for the sake of philosophy, but rather uses philosophy as a means, is a sophist.
Some people have vivid imagination, some not so vivid, but everybody has vivid dreams.
When people begin to philosophize they seem to think it necessary to make themselves artificially stupid.
The great city can teach something that no university by itself can altogether impart: a vivid sense of the largeness of human brotherhood, a vivid sense of man's increasing obligation to man; a vivid sense of our absolute dependence on one another.
To philosophize is only another way of being afraid and leads hardly anywhere but to cowardly make-believe.
If the experience of reality matters, than nothing is going to be better than dreaming. Because dreams feel real to everybody while they are happening. Some people have vivid imagination, some not so vivid, but everybody has vivid dreams.
You think the end justifies the means, however vile. I tell you: the end is the means by which you achieve it. Today's step is tomorrow's life. Great ends cannot be attained by base means. You've proved that in all your social upheavals. The meanness and inhumanity of the means make you mean and inhuman and make the end unattainable.
If you don't generalize you don't philosophize.
To philosophize is to doubt.
To philosophize is to learn to die.
When all else fails, philosophize.
Study is to study what cannot be studied. Undertaking means undertaking what cannot be undertaken. Philosophizing is to philosophize about what cannot be philosophized about. Knowing that knowing is unknowable is true perfection.
