why jordan peterson believes people choose a meaningless life on purpose: "nihilists suffer dreadfully, because there's no meaning in their life. but the advantage is, they have no responsibility. so that's the payoff, and i actually think that's the motivation." "maybe you've just allowed your belief systems to collapse, because it's a hell of a lot easier than acting them out." "the price you pay is a meaningless suffering, but you can always whine about that and people will feel sorry for you, and you have the option of taking the pathway of the martyr. so that's a pretty good deal, all things considered." "perhaps the reason that you're suffering unbearably can be left at your feet, because you're not everything you could be, and you know it." "my experience is with people, that we're probably running at about 51% of our capacity." "if you're wasting 20 hours a week, you're wasting $50,000 a year. and you are doing that right now." "the conscience is this feeling or voice you have in your head, just before you do something you know is stupid, telling you that probably you shouldn't do that stupid thing. you don't have to listen to it, strangely enough." "what would happen if you abided by your conscience for 5 years, or for 10 years? what sort of position might you be in? what sort of relationship might you be able to forge?" "you're at the center of a network. you'll know a thousand people at least over the course of your life. and they'll know a thousand people each. and that puts you one person away from a million. and two persons away from a billion." "the things you do, they're like dropping a stone in a pond. the ripples move outward, and they affect things in ways that you can't fully comprehend." "if you live a pathological life, you pathologize your society. and if enough people do that, then it's hell, really." "you can read the gulag archipelago, and you'll see exactly what hell is like. and then you can decide if that's a place you'd like to visit and take all your family and friends."
