I think the best philosophy is the construction of an individual path that already exists within us, the human mind has spaces that are not normally used is said that they contain the knowledge which belongs to eternity that is behind us,not forward, the rediscovery of the universal cosmic umbilical cord, that binds the human being to its creators, themselves created, and having a single root with-- the one-- which is one and all at the same time. I mean the best philosopher is within you, look for it and pull it out

From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs. History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce. Religion is the impotence of the human mind to deal with occurrences it cannot understand. If anything is certain, it is that I myself am not a Marxist. -- Karl Marx

Will Durant “Sixty years ago I knew everything; now I know nothing; education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance.” “We have here the fundamental problem of ethics, the crux of the theory of moral conduct. What is justice? -shall we seek righteousness, or shall we seek power? -is it better to be good, or to be strong?” “And last are the few whose delight is in meditation and understanding; who yearn not for goods, nor for victory, but for knowledge; who leave both market and battlefield to lose themselves in the quiet clarity of secluded thought; whose will is a light rather than a fire, whose haven is not power but truth: these are the men of wisdom, who stand aside unused by the world.” ― Will Durant, The Story of Philosophy Fantastic Di. Nice pic too!!!

"Scepticism is not irrefutable, but obviously nonsensical, when it tries to raise doubts where no questions can be asked. For doubt can exist only where a question exists, a question only where an answer exists, and an answer only where something can be said." - Ludwig Wittgenstein (Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus 6.51) There's a whole lot packed up in there!

Ayn Rand has flashes of 'insight' that are nothing more than intellectual theft. Her own philosophy was rubbish.

and this one prove that sartre was a man: “If I became a philosopher, if I have so keenly sought this fame for which I'm still waiting, it's all been to seduce women basically” jean paul sartre

Chief Seattle. Deep respect for this man and his crew. They where true warriors of peace and keepers of the twisted hairs way: “We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children” ― Chief Seattle “The earth is our mother. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons and daughters of the earth. This we know. All things are connected like the blood which unites one family. All things are connected. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons and daughters of the earth. We did not weave the web of life, we are merely strands in it. Whatever we do to the web we do to ourselves.” ― Chief Seattle “There is no death. . . Only a change of worlds.” ― Chief Seattle
