The worth of philosophy? This is it right here, wouldn't you say?

Attitude is truly everything!!

Ok, that made me sob. Inspiration comes in many shapes & sizes, just as philosophy does. That was certainly a perspective rendering video clip.

That was very moving and inspiring, but I don’t see what that has to do with Socrates.

He’s a great motivational speaker, but isn’t that more “pop philosophy” than actual philosophy?

I love that guy! The first time I saw it, I was in tears. Truly an inspiration. I don’t know that it has anything to do with philosophy per se, but it does give one a new perspective.

This is great. Every high school homeroom should have a Nick. You know he’s rolling in women, right?

@augustlan Totally wrong. What if he was a nihilist? This has everything to do with philosophy; the appication of philosophy. See, many people don’t think that philosophies have to be applied. They think they just exist in the realm of ideas. They couldn’t be more wrong.

@syz Nope.
