One of the persons that really showed me what Freedom is.

Thank you Misses Arendt!

"The trouble with Eichmann was precisely that so many were like him, and that the many were neither perverted nor sadistic, that they were, and still are, terribly and terrifyingly normal. From the viewpoint of our legal institutions and of our moral standards of judgment, this normality was much more terrifying than all the atrocities put together."

― Hannah Arendt (1906 - 1975), Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil (1963)

This is great. With a loving family, we’re born into that which we belong to and that which belongs to us. The absence of a loving family creates conditions under which one ‘belongs’ but more as property - so they belong to the unloving family, but the family does not belong to them, reciprocally. Society is much like an unloving family. Society has its conditions for belonging; we don’t inherently belong to society - the belonging must be earned through sacrifices which reproduce that society. I love her point that we belong, as our natural state of being; if that’s true, then that natural state also belongs to us.

And they say smoking isn’t cool

"Direct personal relationship" might just be the scariest of all phrases this century.

I am glad the world seems lately to be appreciating Arendt.

Peter Sellers took inspiration from Arendt when he was crafting the character Dr Strangelove. True story.

She's incredible

Ms Arendt was a super bad-ass. rip

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

She reminds me of my biological paternal grandmother. The cig, the voice, the point of love. One dies when they love beyond natural selection, one thrives when they love natural selection!

The mystery of love is letting others verify emotions *love

Thank you for the reality check… a friend to all is a friend to no one (or something like that)

When you see someone smoke a cigarette with such conviction, its tempting to bring all that back.

Beautiful xo

For real

So brilliant.

In addition to everything else she was, Hannah Arendt was a great German philosopher

I love her❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Amar é também sofrer.
Há amores em que você pode ser feliz, entretanto há o amor que em que você está condenado.

Kinda sounds to me like “how can you love someone you don’t know?” Not sure how tto argue with that….

Wir sind traurig zusammen
