To teach how to live with uncertainty, and yet without being paralyzed by hesitation, is perhaps the chief thing that philosophy in our age can still do for those who study it.
--- Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)
Life would be infinitely happier if we could only be born at age eighty and gradually approach eighteen.
--- Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)
The character of human life, like the character of the human condition, like the character of all life, is "ambiguity": the inseparable mixture of good and evil, the true and false, the creative and destructive forces - both individual and social.
-- Paul Tillich (1886 - 1965)
