  11. Two gems to ponder from Alexander Bard - a contemporary philosopher who correctly predicted many aspects and impacts of this digital age before they happened.

    "To love to live is to love to learn".

    and paraphrased:

    "The past is the 'one' state because it is defined. The future is so many possibilities that it is a psychotic state of experience. In between those two constantly cycling 'loops' of perception is the now where we narrow it all down using labels to kid ourselves we understand it, or at least can make use of it by choosing parts to focus on and give an illusion of being able to control the uncontrollable. The subjective labels are all really just filters to prevent psychotic overwhelm, rather than being reality..."

  13. Women’s Scientist and Philosopher logo Crew Neck jumper

    Women’s Scientist and Philosopher plain logo Crew Neck jumper. Sadly it seems science is still not taking first place in the decision making processes by governments on our collective future. Not only that but women are not represented anywhere near where they should be in science and the STEM subjects. Only by reading the science and listening to the scientists will we find solutions to a sustainable and equitable future.

  16. How To Grow Old: Bertrand Russell on What Makes a Fulfilling Life 

    “If you can fall in love again and again,” Henry Miller wrote as he contemplated the measure of a life well lived on the precipice of turning eighty, “if you can forgive as well as forget, if you can keep from growing sour, surly, bitter and cynical… you’ve got it half licked.” Seven years earlier, the great British philosopher, mathematician, historian, and Nobel laureate Bertrand Russell (May 18, 1872–February 2, 1970) considered the same abiding question at the same […]

  29. paulkrugman.substack.com/p/the. "The vulgarity of the Trumpian elite isn’t in itself that important. But it’s a symptom of a collapse in #values & #norms that, unless confronted & reversed, may herald the end of the #American #experiment. We should heed the words of the #Stoic #philosopher #Seneca about the rise & fall of the #Roman #Republic: 'Increases are of sluggish #growth, but the way to ruin is rapid.'"

  31. A quotation from Cicero

    MARCUS: How few philosophers are to be found who are such in character, so ordered in soul and in life, as reason demands; who regard their teaching not as a display of knowledge, but as the rule of life; who obey themselves, and submit to their own decrees!
     
    [Quotus enim quisque philosophorum invenitur, qui sit ita moratus, ita animo ac vita constitutus, ut ratio postulat? qui disciplinam suam non ostentationem scientiae, sed legem vitae putet? qui obtemperet ipse sibi et decretis suis pareat?]

    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC) Roman orator, statesman, philosopher
    Tusculan Disputations [Tusculanae Disputationes], Book 2, ch. 4 (2.4) / sec. 11 (2.11) [Marcus] (45 BC) [tr. Peabody (1886)]
