Sayings and proverbs on the theme "Person-Personality"

Since the culture is created by people, a lot has been said about the person, even too much. We are approaching the solution of the problem "Proverbs on the theme" Person-Personality ". Unconventionality lies in the fact that we give the reader a certain direction of creative search. This means that it will be told about the authors whose books are fully or partially devoted to the human problem.

Friedrich Nietzsche: "Man is a strained rope between the beast and the superman"

Mass consciousness is used to associate Nietzsche's name with fascism. Like, he was the ideologist of this trend. Indeed, Hitler borrowed some ideas from the thinker of the 19th century, having first distorted them. In fact, it is difficult to determine the age of Nietzsche. Chronologically and biologically it belongs to the 19th century, and mentally, emotionally, he is a man and a philosopher of the 20th century. We will stick to facts, not emotions. Nietzsche could not prevent Hitler, since he died back in 1900.

Great anthropologist

Nietzsche has many merits before philosophy, but one of them irritates the people most: the thinker was the first who publicly declared a mass man. He said that he was a "dirty stream". Actually, "A man is something that must surpass". In other words, Nietzsche is a peaceful philosopher who preached about self-improvement using the dictionary of a warrior. Nietzsche needs to read everything, but in particular "So spoke Zarathustra." In this book, "for all and for no one" you will find many things, including various statements about the person's personality.

Jose Ortega y Gasset, The Rebellion of the Masses (1930)

Thirty years after Nietzsche's death, work was published (see the subtitle), which became revolutionary in its own way. In it, not only the genesis of the mass man as an anthropological type was given, but also its characteristics are described in detail. In the book of H. Ortega (he preferred to be called this way), the main intrigue is tied in the confrontation of a mass man and a creative person.

Two anthropological types fundamentally differ from each other in that one (the first) is a consumer, and the other is a doer. One is a lazy person and a "civilization cad" who thinks that the whole world exists only to satisfy his needs. The other is in a state of constant creative search and invention of oneself, the transformation of the self. H. Ortega's book is fascinating and written in a lively and accessible language, which even a schoolboy can cope with. This is not GV Hegel and not M. Heidegger. Of course, there are many interesting and interesting things in it. In other words, one that could replenish your knowledge bag with the general title of "Proverbs on" The Person (Personality) and Famous Quotes about It. ""

Irwin Yalom, "When Nietzsche cried" (1992)

Do not be scared, this is an art book dedicated to an event that was not in fact.

To the teacher of Freud, Josef Breuer, Lou Solome came and said that her friend, she thought, was very ill. Could the professor talk to him and see him? The professor agreed. This friend is Friedrich Nietzsche. Breyer takes up "treatment by talking". Historically, psychoanalysis arose later, of course. But Yal deliberately shifts the historical perspective. Although the facts in this book - not the main thing, the main thing in it is that it is full of wonderful aphorisms about man and human life. And Breyer just did not know who got into his clients. Nietzsche himself is a great anthropologist and psychoanalyst, on par with, for example, A. Schopenhauer. It is not surprising that in the course of analysis the client and the doctor change places, and Nietzsche "heals the conversations" of the doctor, verifies the authenticity of his life. Among the remarkable dialogues written by Yalom there is also such (we do not vouch for the accuracy, we only convey the meaning):

"Why do you think you became a doctor?"

- I dont know. Father insisted.

- Who chose this for you?

- Probably a culture, a dynasty. I always wanted to become a musician.

Russian folk thematic aphorisms (proverbs) "The person (person) and his private life" are searched in this sense with difficulty. For our culture, a single person is a value of negative order. So it was during the peasant community, so it was in the Soviet Union. Now people in Russia are trying to enslave with the help of "corporate ethics" of all kinds.

In general, Irwin Yalom skillfully stylizes his prose "under Nietzsche." The German philosopher never said what Yalom wrote, but he could quite say so. For example, this: "Before you have children, you need to be born yourself."

I remember the idea of S. Dovlatov that some and 50 years are not enough to become like a person. This is a sad thought, albeit ironically.

The reader may be indignant and say that these are not proverbs on the topic "Person (person)". But it's much better! And the aphorisms of the people's production will still be, do not doubt.

Blaise Pascal, "Thoughts" (1657 - 1658)

"Thoughts" is a curious book, wonderful. There's a lot of thinking about religion, but they are so unobtrusive, so tender that they do not spoil the book at all. On the contrary, somehow you involuntarily begin to think about God. In any case, this is not the main thing in it. The main thing is that B. Pascal spoke about a man. For example, the famous aphorism that a person is a "thinking reed". Such an image, on the one hand, tells the reader that being is fragile and fleeting, and on the other hand, that a person is really strong with his flexibility. Under the strongest natural and vital winds, he is capable of ducking, falling to the ground and avoiding death. By the way, this is almost a popular aphorism, that is, it is quite part of the group of "proverbs on the theme" Person-Personality ".

Pascal's thoughts about human destiny are very interesting. Few people know, but the destination is a purely Russian fetish. Probably, the vocation is a "subsidiary enterprise" of the messianic idea of Russia in the world. And in Europe people perceive their business only as a trade. They need to become good masters, that's all.

In this context, the French philosopher, talking about the purpose, says: "And what determines our destiny? Randomness. " Next, let us pass on the general meaning without the quotes. We saw in early childhood, for example, a lawyer or an economist. He was praised with us, and we realized that it was good. Then they chose their own profession. A person, a person (proverbs and statements about it can be completely different) is an extremely multifaceted and inexhaustible subject for research. We try not so much to saturate the reader with various facts, how much to draw his attention to those authors whose works, of course, worth reading.

And it's even better. For example, family tradition. Let it be the railwaymen. The father took his son to the cabin of the train at an early age. The boy saw how cool and cool it was to steer, to drive a train. This image fell to the bottom of his subconscious and modeled the entire professional life. And now he is 30 years old, he is already 10 years on the train, and every time he gets into it, he thinks: "Mom, what am I doing here!" Or "My life is somehow wrong" (S. King) . And in all that the child's image is to blame, and the fact that his father did not see anything wrong in the work of the machinist. But, as J. Barnes used to say: "It's a shame to blame your parents when you are more than 25".

Russian proverbs on the theme "Person-Personality"

It took an hour to scoop out of the well. We will only make three aphorisms.

  1. Not the person who lives for himself, but the one who forgets happiness for the people.
  2. Everyone is a mystery.
  3. Man is not born for himself.

Even according to these statements it is clear that the soul of the Russian people is of a collective nature, but in order to understand something in a person, it must be considered separately and specifically.

Apparently, the Russian people have peculiar proverbs on the subject "Personality and its desired image." Well, what to do. As Karl Marx said: "Being determines consciousness." This is especially true for a not too happy life.
