We cannot begin to discover the mind as long as we ignore the irrational and subterranean springs of behaviour as well as thought.

Use all the stars we have in stock;Of water, fire,walls of rock,And beasts and birds there is no lack.In our narrow house of boards, bestrideThe whole creation, far and wide;Move thoughtfully, but fast as well,From heaven through the world to hell

Philosophy means liberation from the - routine, soaring above the well known, seeing it in new perspectives, arousing wonder and the wish to fly.

The refusal to belong to any school of thought, the repudiation of the adequacy of any body of beliefs whatever, and especially of systems, and a marked dissatisfaction with traditional philosophy as superficial, academic, and remote from life-that is the heart of existentialism.
