Peter Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 From The Readers Digest, perhaps not epistemology or philosophy, but a deep thought. As we watched a program about a man with agoraphobia, my wife asked, “Is that a disability?” “Yes,” I answered. “Maybe I have that.” I shook my head. “No. He’s afraid to leave the house. You just like to stay home.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Stuart Kelly Posted February 5, 2022 Author Share Posted February 5, 2022 I got this on a Carl Jung site here. This is one for the Kantian sublime feeling. "One must still have Chaos in oneself to give birth to a dancing star." -- Friedrich Nietzsche. Betcha can't unsee or unthink that. As the saying goes, Nietzsche is pietzsche. I'm going to stop as I look in awe at what my future might be as a star... Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Stuart Kelly Posted October 5, 2022 Author Share Posted October 5, 2022 I wish I had made this one up, but I didn't. I found it out there somewhere in the Interwebs. A horse walked into a bar and orders a beer. The barkeep says, "You're in here pretty often. Do you think you might be an alcoholic?" The horse replies, "I don't think I am," and vanishes from existence. This story is about Descartes' saying, "I think; therefore, I am. But this could not be explained first because the story would be putting Descartes before the horse. Michael 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
