- We are hardwired to need answers. The problem is when we don't find a logical answer, we settle for a stupid one.
- "God did it" is a lazy explanation.
- Flat tires with <5000 miles are unlikely to go flat unless provoked.
- Rules are meant to be broken.
- Sticking by your convictions and damning the consequences is an idiotic thing to do.
- All convictions are equally ridiculous when they're applied indiscriminately to all circumstances.
- Everybody lies. Trust is unfounded, it's pointless, and fictional.
- Hypocrisy is the act of persistently pretending to hold beliefs, opinions, virtues, feelings, qualities, or standards that one does not actually hold. Hypocrisy is thus a kind of lie.
- Weddings are hypocritical, and to an extent, so is much of religion.
- Isn’t it wrong to do that sort of thing?
- It depends. What do you define as right? What do you define as wrong? In a universe of uncertainty with an origin from nothingness, where nothing is set in stone and the only thing certain is a fool’s complacency, are we really the ones to be imposing our baseless conjectures of a code of moral conduct upon beings whose lack of merit is just as equal as our own?
- Is it within your code of conduct to impose your random, subjective beliefs and judgments upon others? What is ‘right’ about that?
- The goal in life is not to eliminate misery, but to minimize it.
- People often see what they want to see, not what is there.
- There are 300 million people in this country, if you're doing exactly the same as everyone else, then who the hell are you?
- People don't change. Things change and people respond.
- Say what you think, don't believe in pretense. Don't be a coward, don't be afraid to be wrong.
- Life is too short and painful to waste so much time on such trivialities.
- People look for the most rewarding path given from the least amount of effort.
- Defensiveness means someone has something to hide.
- If you talk to God, you're religious. If God talks to you, you're psychotic.
- Everything is conditional. You just can't always anticipate the conditions.
- As knowing where you're going is preferable to being lost, ask
- Everybody does stupid things.
- People have a tendency to accept convenient mindsets and explanations.
- Manners don't matter, results matter.
- Just because there's a word for it, doesn't mean it exists. Case and point: Minotaurs.
- People don't know their limits. They don't know how far they can actually go. Once they're motivated enough for the wheels to start rolling they head straight for the Sun.
- Symbols only have as much meaning as what we infer from them.
