Concrete Unicorns

"To be a philosopher is not merely to have subtle thoughts, nor even to found a school, but so to love wisdom as to live according to its dictates, a life of simplicity, independence, magnanimity, and trust. It is to solve some of the problems of life, not only theoretically, but practically." - Thoreau

15.4.07

Hume and I.

Be a philosopher; but, amidst all your philosophy, be still a man. - Hume
Be a human; but, amidst all your humanity, be still an animal. - era
