Philosophy as practice does not mean its restriction to utility or applicability, that is, to what serves morality or produces serenity of soul.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Philosophy means nothing unless it is connected to birth, death, and the continuance of life. Anytime you are going to build a society that works, you have to begin from nature and the body.
According to the new ethics, virtue is not restrictive but expansive, a sentiment and even an intoxication.
Philosophy is an attempt by man to find cause and effect. Religion has the same goal.
The essence of philosophy is that a man should so live that his happiness shall depend as little as possible on external things.
Philosophy is nothing but discretion.
The word philosophy sounds high-minded, but it simply means the love of wisdom. If you love something, you don't just read about it; you hug it, you mess with it, you play with it, you argue with it.

Rightly defined philosophy is simply the love of wisdom.
