I couldn’t find a reliable source confirming that this quote is genuinely from Arthur Schopenhauer. Here’s what turned up, and why there’s serious doubt:
🔍 What we found
The quote appears on sites like Goodreads, LibQuotes, AZQuotes, Philosopher.eu, etc.

The quote is attributed to The World as Will and Representation (“WWR”), specifically Volume II, Chapter XVII in some listings.

However, I was not able to locate this text in the standard translations of The World as Will and Representation (e.g. E. F. J. Payne’s version) when checking archived/published copies.

⚠ Why it’s probably not a legitimate Schopenhauer quote
No confirmable original source: Despite many quote collections attributing it to Schopenhauer, none provide page numbers or editions that can be checked. Legitimate quotes from his works tend to be well documented (volume, chapter, even section). This one lacks reliable referencing.
Uncharacteristic tone: While Schopenhauer was often very critical of religion and metaphysics, this kind of sweeping dismissal (“one single idea of value”) of a major religious text is unusually blunt, even for him. It might reflect distortion or mistranslation.
Absence in scholarly editions: Searches of validated texts/translations did not find this passage. If it were in Volume II, Ch. XVII, it should show up in published scholarly PDFs/editions, but I found no matching passage.
✅ Conclusion
This quote is almost certainly misattributed or forged. It is not found in verified translations of Schopenhauer’s major works, to the best of available evidence.
If you like, I can try digging through German originals (if this is perhaps a mistranslation or paraphrase) to see whether something close exists, and tell you how this quote may have originated. Do you want me to check that?

That oriental turd world made the waste a west. There would be no western culture without Egyptians, persians, Arabs, indians , chinese. Only thing Wasterners knew is how to die in plagues and do pus medicine treatment.
