Philosophy

Philosophy gathers the questions that refuse to stay quiet: what is real, what is good, what can be known, and how a life should be lived. Quotes in this category range from ancient meditations on virtue and fate to modern challenges about language, power, and the self. You’ll find aphorisms that cut like a blade, arguments distilled into a sentence, and reflections that linger long after the page is closed. Some lines offer guidance—stoic steadiness, ethical clarity, radical doubt—while others unsettle, exposing contradictions and inviting deeper thought. Readers return to philosophical quotations for their precision and their provocation: they don’t merely describe the world; they ask you to examine it, and to examine yourself.
