Truth has nothing to do with the conclusion, and everything to do with the methodology.

The three most important words in a relationship are not, 'I love you,' but, 'Tell me more.

Sanity is not about confrontation. It's about filtering. Having a stable and happy life is about saying "no" to crazy people, not about inviting them in and then hoping that confrontations are going to make them sane.

We may not yet know the right way to go, but we should at least stop going in the wrong direction.

To be yourself is in many ways to be inconvenient to others. Only placaters and appeasers get along with other people all the time and that's not really getting along with anyone. That's just self erasure.

There's a huge swath of humanity that has developed verbal abilities to extract resources from guilt-ridden people.They used to be priests, and now they're leftists.

Irrational expectations are at the root of most human suffering.

Guilt is a feeling that you owe a debt that you're not paying.

It__ not the drug that causes the junkie it__ the laws that causes the junkie because of course the drug laws means that he can__ go and get help because he is afraid of being arrested. He also can__ have a normal life because the war on drugs has made drugs so expensive and has made drug contracts unenforceable which means they can only be enforced through criminal violence. It becomes so profitable to sell drugs to addicts that the drug dealers have every incentive to get people addicted by offering free samples and to concentrate their drug to the highest possible dose to provoke the greatest amount of addiction as possible.Overall it is a completely staggering and completely satanic human calamity. It is the new gulag and in some ways much more brutal than the soviet gulag. In the soviet gulags there was not a huge prison rape problem and in this situation your life could be destroyed through no fault of your own through sometimes, no involvement of your own and the people who end up in the drug culture are walled off and separated as a whole and thrown into this demonic, incredibly dangerous, underworld were the quality of the drugs can__ be verified. Were contracts can__ be enforced except through breaking peoples kneecaps and the price of drugs would often led them to a life of crime.People say __ell, I became a drug addict and I lost my house, family, and my job and all that._ It__ not because you became a drug addict but, because there is a war on drugs which meant that you had to pay so much for the drugs that you lost your house because you couldn't go and find help or substitutes and ended up losing your job. It__ all nonsense. The government can__ keep drugs out of prisons for heaven__ sakes. The war on drugs is not designed to be won. Its designed to continue so that the government can get the profits of drug running both directly through the CIA and other drug runners that are affiliated or through bribes and having the power of terrorizing the population. To frame someone for murder is pretty hard but to palm a packet of cocaine and say that you found it in their car is pretty damn easy and the government loves having that power." -Stefan Molyneux

What we do not confront, we inhabit.What we do not reject, we accept.What we do not fight, we become.

Conformity to the present is invisibility to the future.

The world, viewed philosophically, remains a series of slave camps, where citizens _ tax livestock _ labor under the chains of illusion in the service of their masters.

Knowledge is responsibility, which is why people resist knowledge.

There is no key to open the heart of another - except curiosity.

If you can convince people that freedom is injustice, they will then believe that slavery is freedom.

When people have invested their identities into clichés, the only counter argument they have is 'being offended'.

We are supposed to call poison medicine and we wonder why we're always sick.

Awkward silences rule the world. People are so terrified of awkward silences that they will literally go to war rather than face an awkward silence.
