1/n As I am preparing a wiki, please notice that in the standards frame pinned to the channel, there is a detail: Ambivalent casts that seemingly follow the rules but are overtly engagement farming will be hidden silently. Now, a quality user might share a quote yet they are already engaging here everyday BUT

Was with old i-banking friends from Lazard last night, and one told me that he remembers coming up to my desk when I was an analyst and seeing a printed copy of some of the letters from Epicurus. Some things never change.

remember that the human mind is always deceitful. that's why we always make mistakes with those closest to us. pay extra attention to your family, the people closest to you. there is no one else in the world that is that close

Perhaps why things that make no logical sense, yet are true, such as koans and paradoxes, can be used to reveal something deeper. Logic has the limits of it's own structure.

It's interesting how Aristotle noticed that whether infinity does exist or whether it does not exist, both will have contradictions. If it does exist, then surely something like an infinite amount of dogs would run out of space to exist and if it did not exist, then it would contradict the ability of numbers to go on.

An adaptation of Aristotle’s Ethics: Doing the right thing when it’s inconvenient is like applying exercise to your soul. It is difficult in the moment, but it feels great afterwards and makes your overall condition stronger, healthier, and more beautiful. Eventually, it becomes something you enjoy for itself.

[1/2] If I had to remember only one thinker (which is absurd), it would undoubtedly be Michel Foucault. His obsession with deconstructing systems of thought has changed me forever. A brilliant mind who, through his own tropes, managed to decentralize thinking 😉🧠 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBJTeNTZtGU

A moral rule is valid if it can be applied universally without generating contradictions. The universalizability and consistency in moral principles is something that Kant emphasizes.

I need to make peace with the fact that nobody owes me anything and I deserve nothing. This will help me fall in and out of things easily, I can finally do things without thinking ‘It’s all written’ or ‘there is nothing in my hands’ I need to prove my mantle first.

I encourage such quote-combinations—reminiscent of Benjamin's Arcades. Contextuality does not need originality when the message is clearly constructed.

“When you are there, everything else is there; everything is created all at once. When we emerge from nothing, when everything emerges from nothing, we see it all as a fresh new creation. This is nonattachment.“ - “But the future is the future, the past is the past; now we should work on something new.”
