2ND POST?!

Yep, that's right. 2posts. 1day.

I was reading over my philosophy notes a couple minutes ago, and came across some of my favorite quotes from Sophie's World.

"Life is both sad and solemn. We are let into a wonderful world, we meet one another here, greet each other - and wander together for a brief moment. Then we lose each other and disappear as suddenly and unreasonably as we arrived."

"Acting responsibly is not a matter of strengthening our reason but of deepening our feelings for the welfare of others"

"Remind yourself that you are only living a minuscule part of all nature's life. You are part of an enormous whole.
I think I see what you mean...
Can you manage to feel it as well? Can you perceive all of nature at one time - the whole universe, in fact - at a single glance?"

Just thought I would share those.

  1. If any of your class's discussions in philosophy go awry, you definitely need to post about it. Here was one of ours a couple years ago
