Philosophical Musings 105-108

105) We rarely find solutions by thinking as we ordinarily think. We may come closer to a solution by questioning all our assumptions and opinions, by questioning not only what we think but how we think. Furthermore, we also need to feel actively and to feel actively is a long way from the kind of defensive and negative emotional reactions which form too great a part of our emotional lives.


106) Until a man understands everything he has neither the right to deny the existence of God nor the right to explain to others whatever his delusions might tell him God is.


107) Organised religion very often tends to think of vinegar as wine.


108) To say sorry from a genuine sense of remorse is a thousand times more difficult than saying sorry because it is expected or demanded of us.
