    John Rawls
    “Hume's skepticism in morals does not arise from his being struck by
    the diversity of the moral judgments of mankind. As I have indicated, he thinks that people more or less naturally agree in their moral judgments and count the same qualities of character as virtues and vices; it is rather the enthusiasms of religion and superstition that lead to differences, not to mention the corruptions of political power.”
    John Rawls, Lectures on the History of Moral Philosophy

  • #11
    John Rawls
    “The natural distribution is neither just nor unjust; nor is it unjust that persons are born into society at some particular position. These are simply natural facts. What is just and unjust is the way that institutions deal with these facts.”
    John Rawls, A Theory of Justice

    Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar
    “İnansaydım mesele değişirdi. Bilseydim ki vardır, insanlarla hiçbir davam kalmazdı. Yalnız onunla kavga ederdim. Her an bir yerde yakalar, bana hesap vermeğe mecbur ederdim. Ve zannederdim ki bana hesap vermeğe mecbur olurdu. Gel, derdim gel, yarattığın mahluklardan birisinin derisine bir an gir. Benim her gün yaptığımı yap. Bir tanesinin hayatım yirmi dört saat yaşa! Pek bedbahtına gitmene lüzum yok. Sen ki yaratıcısın, bilmemen, anlamaman kabil olmaz. Onun için herhangi birinin derisine gir. Ve kendi yalanını bir an bizimle beraber yaşa; bizim gibi yaşa. Yirmi dört saat bu bataklıkta küçük susuzlukların kurbağası ol!”
    Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar, Huzur

    Peyami Safa
    “Basının üstünden büyük bir rüzgâr geçiyor. Yalancı bir fecirle(şafak) başlayan asır kararıyor ve sana tek ümit ışığı olarak en kudretli kaynağı uranium’da değil, senin ruhunda sıkışmış maddeden koparak çıkardığın korkunç tahrip âletinin patlayışından yükselecek alevi bekletiyor. Ey bahtsız! Tarihinin hiç bir devrinde kendine bu kadar yabancı, bu kadar hayran ve düşman olmadın. Laboratuarında aradığın, incelediğin, oyduğun, dibine indiğin, sırrını değiştiğin her şey arasında yalnız ruhun yok. Onu beyin hücrelerinin bir üfürüğü sanmakla başlayan müthiş gafletin, otuz yıl içinde gördüğün iki muazzam dünya harbinin kan ve göz yaşı çağlayanlarında en büyük dersi arayan gözlerine bir körlük perdesi indirdi. Bırak şu maddeyi, boğ şu ölçü dehanı, doy şu fizik ve matematik tecessüsüne, kov şu kemiyet fikrini, dal kendi içine, koş kendi kendinin peşinden, bul onu, bul kendini, bul ruhunu, bul, sev, bil, an, gör, kendi içinde gör Allah’ını. Kendine dön, kendine bak, kendine gel. Aptalca bir konfor aşkından doğduğu halde her biri daha korkunç bir dünya harbi hazırlayan teknik mucizelerinin yanında, senin iç zıtlıklarını elemeye yarayacak ye seni kendi kendinle boğuşmaktan kurtaracak ruh mucizelerini ara. İnan mânevilere ve mukaddeslere, inan! Onlar hakkında bu kadar küçükçe düşünmekten utan! Her sezilen derinliğin ifşa ettiklerini düşünmekten bile seni alıkoyan tabiatçı metodlarını fırlat ve bitlenmiş elbiseler gibi at. Ortaçağ papazında haklı olarak ayıpladığın dar kafalılığın anlayış sınırlarını daha fazla darlaştıran beş duyu idrakinin kapalı dünyası içinde kalma: Arşı geç, ferşi atla, sidreyi aş. Gör ne var maverada ibrethiz.”
    Peyami Safa, Yalnızız

    “It was a comet. The boy saw the comet and he felt as though his life had meaning. And when it went away, he waited his entire life for it to come back to him. It was more than just a comet because of what it brought to his life: direction, beauty, meaning. There are many who couldn't understand, and sometimes he walked among them. But even in his darkest hours, he knew in his heart that someday it would return to him, and his world would be whole again... And his belief in God and love and art would be re-awakened in his heart. The boy saw the comet and suddenly his life had meaning.”
    Lucas Scott

    “Love Poem
    ـــــــــ
    It's so nice
    to wake up in the morning
    all alone
    and not have to tell somebody
    you love them
    when you don't love them
    any more.”
    Richard Brautigan

    Morrissey
    “I was never young. This idea of fun: cars, girls, saturday night, bottle of wine... to me, these things are morbid. I was always attracted to people with the same problems as me. It doesn't help when most of them are dead.”
    Morrissey

    Mark Z. Danielewski
    “Passion has little to do with euphoria and everything to do with patience. It is not about feeling good. It is about endurance. Like patience, passion comes from the same Latin root: pati. It does not mean to flow with exuberance. It means to suffer.”
    Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves
