Peter Sloterdijk Quotes
For Many Intelligences,the Thought Of Homely Intimacies Is Associated With A Spontaneous Disgust At Too Much Sweetness-which Is Why There Is Neither A Philosophy Of Sweetness Nor An Elaborated Ontology Of The Intimate. One Must Assess The Nature Of This Resistance If One Is To Get Past Typical Initial Aversions. From A Distance,the Subject Appears So Unattractive And Inconsequential That For The Time Being,only Suckers For Harmony Or Theophilic Eunuchs Would Get Stuck On It. An Intellect That Spends Its Energy On Worthy Objects Usually Prefers The Sharp To The Sweet; One Does Not Offer Candy To Heroes
