Arthur Schopenhauer — "It would be better if there were nothing. Since there is more pain than pleasure…"

It would be better if there were nothing. Since there is more pain than pleasure on earth, every satisfaction is only transitory, creating new desires and new distresses, and the agony of the devoured animal is always far greater than the pleasure of the devourer.
Arthur Schopenhauer — Arthur Schopenhauer Modern · Pessimist philosophy
