That life has the meaning you choose to give it.

I couldn't find distraction anymore in that usually reliable painkiller, the orgasm.

And a good talker. And he could always cloud the issue with words.

Kant said human reason is troubled by questions that it cannot dismiss, but also cannot answer. Okay, so, what are we talking about here? Morality? Choice? The randomness of life? Aesthetics? Murder?

So, Kant would argue that in a truly moral world, there is absolutely no room for lying. And even the smallest lie destroys his precious categorical imperative.
