1 " Philosophy is the gaseous state of thought, Science its liquid state, Religion its rigid state. In all three states doubts are expressed regarding the necessity, and even the possibility, of absolute death. We shall discuss this doubt only in its liquid state. . . . "
― Arthur Koestler , Arrow in the Blue
2 " The feeling of fraternal warmth towards fellow beings handicapped by their social background became transformed into a self-degrading worship of the primitive, the uncouth, the humorless; of the blockheaded "class-conscious" proletarian - the cult of the lowest common denominator. "
3 " The distinction between true and false applies to ideas, not to emotions; an emotion can be cheap, but never untrue. "
