"The pluralistic form takes for me a stronger hold on reality than any other philosophy I know of, being essentially a social philosophy, a philosophy of 'co'"-William James
I find this quote to be more relevant today than it was back then. it seems as though we no longer value our own opinion but yet we would insult our fellow man based on how the media or celeberties paint those who don't belong to our political party/ ethnic class. #11
I often can think too critically of myself in many aspects of my life which can be dangerous sometimes. I'm still learning to find the right balance between free thought and critical thinking.
That quote certainly captures the spirit of Aristotle's philosophy, if not the letter. He may not have said it, but he'd not have disagreed with it.

Deletei think people need to hear or see this post. that way the people can be themselves instead of pretending they are something they are not.
ReplyDeleteThis quote definitely relate to almost everyone because we tend to jump to conclusions without analyzing the whole situation or what was told
