Weak thread

...

Good job, you managed to pick the most facebook tier quote possible. And from a guy who has plenty of profound quotes, too.

I guess eleanor has a weak mind considering he's discussion of people in only thinly veiled

And minds that are so absent of anything but frog croaks and memories of porn post Socrates quotes as banal as that. Pls kill yourself literally literally literally literally.

The great thing about that quote is that it is almost always used in a snide, better-than-all-the-sheeple way, indirectly making whoever posts it a weak mind by the premises of the quote itself.

Socratic irony is the gift that just keeps on giving for millennia.

Irony is sadly lost on most people

this is not even reddit this is literally 9gag

I thought that was Eleanor Roosevelt?

...

It's been a prevalent notion. Fallen sparks. Fragments of vessels broken at the Creation. And someday, somehow, before the end, a gathering back to home. A messenger from the Kingdom, arriving at the last moment. But I tell you there is no such message, no such home -- only the millions of last moments...nothing more. Our history is an aggregate of last moments.

Willfully ignoring metaphor isn't clever in my opinion. Or are we just laughing at the fact that he's a huge idiot?

Wouldn't surprise me if he took inner beauty as meaning physical health or some shit.

HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHH

Maybe Socrates was right because it is the Age of Idpol and also weak minds.

...

Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pitch and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.

he's a wise man

>this is an ironic joke for ME
we'll be ended, all of us, by this kind of fart huffing schizo self-obsession. this is our disease

Let others complain that the age is wicked; my complaint is that it is paltry; for it lacks passion. Men’s thoughts are thin and flimsy like lace, they are themselves pitiable like the lacemakers. The thoughts of their hearts are too paltry to be sinful. For a worm it might be regarded as a sin to harbor such thoughts, but not for a being made in the image of God. Their lusts are dull and sluggish, their passions sleepy. They do their duty, these shopkeeping souls, but they clip the coin a trifle, like the Jews; they think that even if the Lord keeps ever so careful a set of books, they may still cheat Him a little. Out upon them! This is the reason my soul always turns back to the Old Testament and to Shakespeare. I feel that those who speak there are at least human beings; they hate, they love, they murder their enemies, and curse their descendants throughout all generations, they sin.
