In the beginning god created the heaven and the earth.Genesis22. Rather, it declares that even if god did exist, that would change nothing.Jean-Paul Sartre: Existentialism23. Behold! Human beings living in a underground den, which has a mouth opentowards the light and reaching all along the den; here they have been from their childhood, and have their legs and necks chained so that they cannot move, and can only see before them, being prevented by the chains from turning round their heads. Above and behind them a fire is blazing at a distance, and between the fire and the prisoners there is a raised way;Plato: The Republic24. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.Matthew25. God is a useless and costly hypothesis假设.Jean-Paul Sartre: Existentialism26. This human animal—prescient, sagacious, complex, acute, full of memory,reason and counsel, which we call man,—is generated by the supreme God ina more transcendent condition than most of his fellow–creatures. For he is theonly creature among the earthly races of animated beings endued with superior reason and thought, in which the rest are deficient. And what is there, I do not say in man alone, but in all heaven and earth, more divine than reason, which, when it becomes ripe and perfect, is justly termed wisdom?Cicero: On the Laws27. Thus humanity is male and man defines woman not in herself but as relative tohim; she is not regarded as an autonomous being.Simone de Beauvoir: The Second Sex28. Religion is based, I think, primarily and mainly upon fear. It is partly the terror ofthe unknown and partly, as I have said, the wish to feel that you have a kind of elder brother who will stand by you in all your troubles and disputes.Bertrand Russell: Why I Am Not a Christian29. For my part I consider that it is better to be adventurous than cautious, becausefortune is a woman, and if you wish to keep her under it is necessary to beat and ill-use her; and it is seen that she allows herself to be mastered by the adventurous rather than by those who go to work more coldly. She is, therefore, always, woman-like, a lover of young men, because they are less cautious, more violent, and with more audacity command her.Nicolo Machiavelli: The Prince 30. The existentialist does not think that man is going to help himself by finding inthe world some omen by which to orient himself. Because he thinks that man will interpret the omen to suit himself. Therefore, he thinks that man, with no support and no aid, is condemned every moment to invent man. Jean-Paul Sartre: Existentialism31. The reason why men enter into society is the preservation of their property.(P280)John Locke: Of Civil Government32. Man is by nature a political animal. And therefore, men, even when they do notrequire one another's help, desire to live together; not but that they are also brought together by their common interests in proportion as they severally attain to any measure of well-being. This is certainly the chief end, both of individuals and of states.Aristotle: The Politics33. A PRINCE ought to have no other aim or thought, nor select anything else for hisstudy, than war and its rules and discipline; for this is the sole art that belongs to him who rules, and it is of such force that it not only upholds those who are born princes, but it often enables men to rise from a private station to that rank.Nicolo Machiavelli: The Prince34. By pursuing his own interest he frequently promotes that of the society moreeffectually than when he really intends to promote it.Adam smith: The Wealth of Nations35. And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life, Eye for eye, tooth fortooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe. Exodus36. First, that men are continually in competition for honor and dignity, whichthese creatures are not; and consequently amongst men there ariseth on that ground, envy, and hatred, and finally war; but amongst these not so.Thomas Hobbes: Leviathan37.
