![]() ![]() Maybe my problem is that I don’t really understand the history of philosophy - the long story of growth and progression of the philosophic art. What I find in Aristotle is mainly a quite dull collection of generalizations, many of which seem impossible to justify in the light of modern knowledge, whose organization appears extremely poor, and which seems primitive in the way old Greek pottery in the museums seems primitive. ![]() Remember my pull quote from my recent read of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: ![]() Thinking about the meaning of life is the pastime of the ages, after all, but often - too often - when I sit down to read someone else's thoughts on the subject - especially someone who lived before the European Renaissance - I find myself bored, then confused, then intolerant. I have a love/hate relationship with philosophy. ![]()
