Zor Zamanlar İçin İnsan Kalma Rehberi

“Prudent silence is sacred.”

Baltasar Gracián, who was born in the lands of the Kingdom of Aragon and lived as a professor of theology and philosophy, preacher, priest, administrator and writer, has become immortal with his thoughts on the subtleties of living humanely.

Arguing that everything should be expressed concisely and succinctly, Baltasar underlines that the benefits of conciseness will double. Everything that is complex, crowded, long, intense and complicated serves no purpose other than making life more difficult.
“Human” is mature, wise, prudent, has a high level of reasoning ability, has developed tastes, is consistent in his actions and is intelligent. However, this person should also be a gambler of life who does not reveal everything about himself, who sometimes knows how to hide, but does it skillfully. Prudence is the most valuable thinking muscle that human beings must develop.

Success, power, money, love... A person who gives up his nature to achieve all these is dragged into deception as he becomes more evil. There are much more practical and functional ways to be successful without falling into immorality. Baltasar is one of the unique names that can be taken as a guide, having inspired geniuses such as Nietzsche and Schopenhauer.
