Idiots and retards most of the time, yes. Seems very pessimistic in my opinion.

I'll check out some summaries, when I can.

"Das Leben ist kein Volksfest." translates roughly to "Happiness in life is sparse anyway you look at it" in context.

Very sad, indeed. But the purest truth nonetheless.

According to Schopenhauer, you free your mind by taking assumptions away. Not by adding them.

Things you add to your mindset, especially when "only" done implicitly, are like voluntarily put on mental shackles, so to say.
