“This is a formidable enemy. To dismiss it as a bunch of 'cowards' perpetuating 'senseless acts of violence' is complacent nonsense. People willing to kill thousands of innocents while they kill themselves are not cowards. They are deadly vicious warriors and need to be treated as such.”
Charles Krauthammer
“Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism -how passionately I hate them!”
Albert Einstein
“The ceaseless, senseless demand for original scholarship in a number of fields, where only erudition is now possible, has led either to sheer irrelevancy, the famous knowing of more and more about less and less, or to the development of a pseudo-scholarship which actually destroys its object.”
Hannah Arendt
“Superstition is a senseless fear of God”
Marcus Tullius Cicero
“We lost our Alan so senselessly. And we just don't understand it. I mean, this happens to other people. Now we lost our only brother and my parents lost their only son.”
Cathy Kruse
“It was so small and senseless. A petty argument lost him his life.”
Catherine Young
“What really raises one's indignation against suffering is not suffering intrinsically, but the senselessness of suffering.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
