Peace & Love, just don't forget to wear a glove ________________________________________________ "There are nowadays professors of philosophy, but not philosophers. Yet it is admirable to profess because it was once admirable to live. 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 accordingly 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." --Henry David Thoreau, WALDEN ________________________________________________ "Modesty is not good for a needy man" --Plato quoting Socrates quoting Homer ________________________________________________ "Well-being as you understand it - that is no goal, that seems to us an end, a state that soon makes man ridiculous and contemptible - that makes his destruction desirable.
