September 6

People jump back and forth in pursuit of pleasures only because they see the emptiness of their lives more clearly than they do the emptiness of whichever new entertainment attracts them.
— Blaise Pascal

The things we do to make our life more comfortable remind me of an ostrich who hides his head in order not to see his enemies. We behave even worse than an ostrich. In order to achieve some dubious questionable future, we definitely destroy our life in the clearly defined present time.

People today foolishly try to believe that all the world's senselessness and cruelty — the richness of the few, the great poverty of the many, the violence, and warfare — happens outside their own lives and does not interfere with them and their way of life.


A misconception remains a misconception, even when it is shared by the majority of the people.
