Human Existence

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or existence:

“Justice is a moral virtue, merely because it has that tendency to the good of mankind, and indeed is nothing but an artificial invention to that purpose.

—David Hume (1711–1776)

“For it is only as an aesthetic phenomenon that existence and the world are eternally justified.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
