Notes, Highlights & Quotes
First Division. First and Last Things.
- Chemistry of Ideas and Sensations. “How can anything spring from its opposite?” The noble often grows out of the ordinary. Higher ideals can stem from lower ideals in the same manner as things contain duality.
- Inherited Faults of Philosophers. Philosophers assume human beings are fixed when in reality they are always in flux, just as culture and morality evolve. Therefore to truly understand something that evolves, you must learn of its history.
- Appreciation of Unpretentious Truths. Humans invent metaphysical worlds because reality feels unsatisfying. Many beliefs may satisfy emotional needs rather than reveal reality.
