What are the honest facts that people won't just swallow?

 

  1. Karl Marx once said--

"Most people are poor not because of their own incompetence but because of the cruelty of the rich."

2. Confucius:

"People kill in the name of religion and community not because they love their people. It's because 'killing' is in their blood. They simply use those names to justify the killings they commit."

3. Socrates:

People read hundreds of books looking for answers that can easily be found by closing their eyes.

4. Aristotle:

Even all the words written in all the books in the world cannot explain all the phenomena occurring in our ecosystem. And this is how people seek to solve the mysteries of the universe.

4. John Dewey:

People seek happiness by forgetting themselves whether by watching movies, being in the arms of a loved one, or drinking alcohol. But these are only temporary escapes from real life. True and lasting happiness lies within our hearts.

Do you like these fancy quotes?

Well, let me tell you the truth - I just wrote that, not Aristotle, Socrates, or anyone else. They never said these things.

Go and read again quickly. Now, to you, that is just an ordinary opinion of an ordinary person.

So, my conclusion and the fact that people can't swallow is--

If you're popular, everything you say is wisdom. If not, your words of wisdom are just mediocre opinions.
