Quote of the Day: It is hard to observe and state the uncomfortable, but 150 years ago a German philosopher and writer spent a lot of time observing human behaviour and understanding the realities of life. Arthur Schopenhauer is one of the great thinkers who left an indelible mark on human psychology. His work has helped people understand the wants, suffering, trust, and self-deception. While other philosophers focused on analysing the political systems and injustices in the societies, Schopenhauer turned his way inwards. While his observations had a different point of view than others and often noted the discomfort, it was sometimes controversial but generally unforgettable. Schopenhauer, also known as the "philosopher of pessimism," was often appreciated for his honesty, and his statements resonated with people who were in search of deeper truths of life.
