If something inspires you to do something innovative,creative... DO IT now,,, if you postponed then you missed the chance to become huge......

Who wants to be huge?

I'm big in Japan

don't tell me what to do.

Yeah. Plus-sized clothing costs more.

...what?
guess being a "philosopher" is hard work.

Why does it have to be so black and white?! No second chances? Geeze..

What if what you want to do you can't do because failure is the only ending to the situation? What if what inspires you is enigmatic, therefore taking years, possibly decades to truly understand?

Life is but a puzzle, put it together at your own pace.

Most philosophers in history died of starvation. Almost all of them were dirt poor. The bigger their thought, the poorer their lives.

In fact, if you walk down the street, and want to pick a philosopher out of the random crowd, then choose the guy or gal with the shopping cart full of empties and the mutter under his or her breath. The mutter the breath, the huger the creativity.

Today, perhaps...However, historically speaking, a lot of philosophers were very well off.

Of course they weren't lazy half-wits either, they actually studied and did s*** instead of just banging on a trash can for attention.

Good question :)

everyone wants to be big in money,in respect,in his own eyes...don't you ?

thats cool,,,, at least you feel so,.. Thats the most important thing...

there is nothing impossibe in this world,if there was then there were no achievers but there are..
And if failure is da endin situation then that time i would have struggled,coz LIFE IS ALL ABOUT STRUGGLE.i never gave up never will.
Secondly there is nothing secret about ourslf that we don't know or can not find.A real guy knows all truth about himself.

i'm not telling you what to do or what not to do.Its atlast your choice to stay in the mud or to raise like a lotus...

There are things impossible in this world, failure to see that is just turning a blind eye to a real problem. I do not understand your next sentence, clarify, please. I never said I gave up, I simply said that some dreams are doomed to fail due to things beyond our control...People can live out their entire life without knowing who they really are, either due to traumatic experience or simply motivation...Doesn't make anyone less of a person, just means they haven't found it yet.

The philosophers who were well off had been born into money or made it with something other than philosophy.

The wife of Socrates supported them both with doign wash for other Athenians.

Jesus died on the cross after being tortured. Pain is not a sign of poverty, but rich people can usually support an army to be their body guards.

Mahatma Ghandi was the hungriest philosopher on record so far.

Karl Marx never got bigger than being a suburban middle-class guy, and 220 lbs.

Drongel Mirutliayeff was so poor, he could not buy paper and pen, and his thoughts have become completely lost to posterity.

Nietzsche was so poor he never got laid.

Russeau, Russell, Carrous, Koppenschnagglerhublimkant, and others, were mediocre paper-pushers in offices, and they became big in name, but not in wealth.

Descartes made money as an engineer, Gerard Ford as an engineer and social engineer, the biggest so far; Confucius died of Alzheimers, at least it was recorded that he became confused in his old age, some cynics say he was trying to get to the bottom of the wisdom of his own sayings.

Rabindranah Tagore was eaten by rebel forces in the mountains of Madagascar, Hume got born dead, and Kant never saw c-... Never mind.

Schoppenhauer was hauled to a hospital and pronounced dead there, after he collapsed in a mall a week before Christmas. Sartre lost his mind, and went to the Lost and Found departmetn of the Paris French underground every single day and reasoned with the clerks there, until they finally created a pool just between themselves, and bought him a new one. Adam Smith lived off his invention of the Adam's Apple, and Machiavelli died by the sword.

Spinoza died of Spinach Poisoning, and Brussel Sprout died becasue he could no longer live with the hatred by all young boys toward him.

Heidegger, Ebbing, and Kraftstreikmueller were each so poor they died speaking only German.

Aristotle is the only one who, though his work, and with his writing, survived to this day. He is assistand dean and teaching at the school of philosophy at Kent State University. He hopes to get a tenured position there.

Darwin devolved, Augustine got augmented, and nobody who's been searching for America has found it since the first and second only successful attempts at it by Columbus and by the founding fathers, respectively.

Take your juvenile tirade elsewhere, wux...I have no time for this nonsense.

I was at a party one time in columbus with a dude named darwin. I saw him two weeks later at a Dead show in Buffalo selling grilled cheese sandwiches. Life is funny like that.......
