"Man wants to live, but it is useless to hope that this desire will dictate all his actions." ― Albert Camus Topic(s): Hope Tags: wants More From Albert Camus "After all manner of professors have done their best for us, the place we are to get knowledge is in books. The true university of these days is a collection of books." "The evil that is in the world almost always comes of ignorance, and good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence if they lack understanding." "Truly fertile Music, the only kind that will move us, that we shall truly appreciate, will be a Music conducive to Dream, which banishes all reason and analysis. One must not wish first to understand and then to feel. Art does not tolerate Reason." More In Hope "Back in the days when the market was a kind of secular god and all the world thrilled to behold the amazing powers of private capital, the idea of privatizing highways and airports and other bits of our transportation infrastructure made a certain kind of sense."― Thomas Frank "I suppose if I’d got a brilliant first and done research I might still be a don today, but I hope not. People become dons because they are incapable of doing anything else in life."― A. N. Wilson "Who dares nothing, need hope for nothing."― Friedrich Schiller
