Philosophy

I have a new favourite quote. My old favourite was from Plato's republic:


"My dear Socrates, if you produce theories of that sort, you can’t be surprised if most decent people take their coats off, pick up the nearest weapon, and come after you in their shirt sleeves to do something terrible to you!"


My new favourite is from Nozick's Knowledge and Skepticism:


"If, as is likely, these explanations do not help, please use your own intuitive understanding of subjunctives 3 and 4."


Keep smiling,

I am.
