the way Schopenhauer was summarized he sounds a lot like Buddha; desire leads to unhappiness and misery. to find contentment you must relinquish desire. seems to me that if both Schopenhauer and Nietzsche would've looked beyond the limitations of western thought they could've found what they were looking for - Buddhism. and these guys were supposed to geniuses? uummm, I guess the word genius really is thrown around too loosely these days. the reality is; desire, greed, ambition, materialism and consumerism ARE what leads to human discontent. you wanna be happy? stop following the lies of the elite and stop being a blind, self-centered, egotistical, materialistic jerk. think for yourselves and think of how your actions affect others. and involve yourself in creating a society that isn't ruled by insane megalomaniacs! its that simple.
