This thread is about philosophical favorites. I.E your favorite philosophical sentences.

Mine would be

"Smile and the world smiles with you.Cry and you cry alone."
"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."
And
"There's more to the truth than just the facts."

you know, my favorite philosophical thoughts relate to game theory actually, like the Prisoner's Dilema or the Tragedy of The Commons,

but i think Voltaire said something about being to smart for politics condemns you to government by the less intelligent

But what is a person then? Is he the one being mimicked? But it isn't the thought or opinion that matters, it's what you do with it. Do something that changes your life or someone else's life, and you've proven that you're possible of being your own.
