Philosophy begins in wonder.
Philosophy begins in wonder. And, at the end, when philosophic thought has done its best, the wonder remains.
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.
What is a philosophy? It Is an answer satisfactory to the reason to all the great problems of life. That is what is meant by philosophy. It must satisfy the reason, and it must show the unity underlying the endless diversity of the facts that science observes.
One of the great problems of philosophy is the relationship between the realm of knowledge and the realm of values. Knowledge is what is; values are what ought to be.
All serious conversations gravitate towards philosophy.
We have to make philosophy itself an object of philosophical concern.
Everybody has values. Now, you know it may be formed in a secular setting, it may be formed in an intellectual setting, but everybody comes forward with values.
Philosophy is tested and characterised by the way in which it appropriates its history.
Philosophy is the product of wonder.
