The truth hurts, but if you accept it, it will set you free
Title couldn’t say it all.
“To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.”
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
~ Born May 25, 1803 Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.
~ Died April 27, 1882 Concord, Massachusetts, U.S.

Waldo is not rong
People should decide whether something written or said makes sense by its content, not by the person who writes or says it, regardless of the letters after his or her name, title or position in society, age, nationality etc.
“Like everything metaphysical the harmony between thought and reality is to be found in the grammar of the language.”
~ Ludwig Wittgenstein

Ludwig said it all...

It is not a political post.
Quotations are used by me as a means of inspiration and to invoke philosophical thoughts from the reader.
Pragmatically speaking, quotations can also be used as language games (in the Wittgensteinian sense of the term) to manipulate social order and the structure of society.
:D
you've never inspired or invoked philosophical thoughts from anyone here with your bullshit posts so the logical deduction is that you're just a troll looking to get a rise from people.
you do achieve that so why don't you just admit that's why you post here.
now go back to your dick pics you commie cocksucker.
