Quote by Josef Stalin

Gratitude is a sickness suffered by dogs.

Gratitude is a sickness suffered by dogs.

Summary

This quote reflects a cynical perspective on gratitude, suggesting that it is a weakness rather than a virtue. It implies that gratitude is a quality possessed only by those who are subservient or loyal, much like dogs who are dependent on humans for care and sustenance. By equating gratitude to a sickness, the quote challenges the notion that gratitude is a positive and empowering emotion, undermining its value and dismissing its significance in human relationships.

The near side of a galaxy is tens of thousands of light-years closer to us than the far side; thus we see the front as it was tens of thousands of years before the back. But typical events in galactic dynamics occupy tens of millions of years, so the error in thinking of an image of a galaxy as frozen in one moment of time is small.
