“The great object of life is sensation- to feel that we exist, even though in pain.”
George Gordon Byron“The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations“Men can only be happy when they do not assume that the object of life is happiness.”
George Orwell“I have always recognized that the object of business is to make money in an honorable manner. I have endeavored to remember that the object of life is to do good.”
Peter Cooper“Unless suffering is the direct and immediate object of life, our existence must entirely fail of its aim. It is absurd to look upon the enormous amount of pain that abounds everywhere in the world, and originates in needs and necessities inseparable from life itself, as serving no purpose at all and the result of mere chance. Each separate misfortune, as it comes, seems, no doubt, to be something exceptional; but misfortune in general is the rule.I know of no greater absurdity than that propounded by most systems of philosophy in declaring evil to be negative in its character. Evil is just what is positive; it makes its own existence felt.”
Arthur Schopenhauer“The greatest wisdom is to make the enjoyment of the present the supreme object of life because that is the only reality”
all else being the play of thought. But it might as well be our greatest folly because that which exists only a moment and vanishes as a dream can never be worth a serious effort.
