This: “After your death you will be what you were before your birth.” …is one of my favorite words-of-wisdom.
I feel a true therein on different levels…

@mo: Schopenhauer certainly was a grumpy bastard - but he was a grumpy SMART bastard.

mo

hähä.. you got it!
His mother was not so grumpy …but against him, a really stupid
bitch!( Schopenhauer has also a very interesting biography!)

@mo: Almost all these Philosophers have some weirdness in their lifes. I guess you can’t be normal and a great thinker - you need to have your brain / personalities twisted in some way …

Hmm! This is valid, more or less, for all ´great` characters… artists, writers, painters… and in a dangerous way, also politician.
But i think about your thesis, special by the philosophers!
Kant - okay …in the older years, he becomes insane maybe a dementia because of his age). But what`s about Sartre, Camus, Voltaire, Hume, Locke - I don`t know exactly all life stories - on the other side …so many people experience a hard or ´distinctively` destiny, without special attainment (in a public mind!)

@Mo: That would be worth researching great man and thinkers - and their family history and resulting psychological deformations …
