COMPASSION

Affirmation of life is the spiritual act by which man ceases to live thoughtlessly and begins to devote himself to his life
with reverence in order to give it true value.
— Albert Schweitzer

Schopenhauer paraphrased by Warren Zevon





To buy books would be a good thing if we also could buy the time to read them.
 -- Arthur Schopenhauer


Warren Zevon rephrasing of Schopenhauer:(in documentary about his final days):
We love to buy books because we believe we're buying the time to read them.


I  keep buying books  I have no time to read....Is this an attempt to buy more time on this revolving slaughterhouse of a planet?
