No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable
-le philosophy man

i fucking love dyogenes or whatever the fuck he's called
it's so fun to read about him.
>>26397383
It's a shame none of his writings survived. Truly based.

Humans stress over the most trivial things. Dogs worry about being properly fed and quenched. Their parameters for contentment are not as irrational as humans'.

A dog can't stress about getting spawn camped in CoD.
With the expansion of the mind and intellect it opens up doors to both negative and positive traits.

Diogenes didn't envy for their lack of human choice. He envied them for their lack of irrational human bullshit.
