Schopenhauer:

"Man can do what he wants but he cannot want what he wants."

He's got some others I like as well:

"We forfeit three-fourths of ourselves in order to be like other people."

"Compassion is the basis of all morality."

"Life is short and truth works far and lives long: let us speak the truth."

"In early youth, as we contemplate our coming life, we are like children in a theatre before the curtain is raised, sitting there in high spirits and eagerly waiting for the play to begin."

"A reproach can only hurt if it hits the mark. Whoever knows that he does not deserve a reproach can treat it with contempt."

"Intellect is invisible to the man who has none."

"No one beats him at his game for very long, but just the same. Who cares, there's no place safe to hide, nowhere to run, no time to cry. So celebrate while you still can, cause any second it may end. When it's all been said and done, it's better that you've had some fun, instead of hiding in a shell. Why make your life a living hell? So drink a toast, down a cup, drink to bones that turn to dust, cause no one lives forever." - Danny Elfman

I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it.

Yes, but it has absolutely nothing to do with colourblindness.

And black and white aren't colours.

Huh, it sort of makes sense, but the analogy seems rather misappropriated.

Anyway, in a similar vein:

Voltaire said:
Of all religions, the Christian should of course inspire the most tolerance, but until now Christians have been the most intolerant of all men.
Unfortunately true, even now in some circles.

Any Terry Pratchett book. Ever.
Here are a few quotes from them...

'Time is like a drug. Too much of it kills you.'

'WE CAN REBUILD HIM, he have the pottery!'

'Brutha hesitated. It dawned on him, very slowly, that demons and succubi didn't turn up looking like small old tortoises. There wouldn't be much point. Even Brother Nhumrod would have to agree that when it came to rampant eroticism, you could do a lot better than a one-eyed tortoise.'

'He felt that the darkness was full of unimaginable horrors - and the trouble with unimaginable horrors was that they were only too easy to imagine...'

I love you.

OT:
