I really should get...
I really should get some formal training in philosophy (including logic) and other crap I missed out on in college as a result of the engineering school not requiring more than one "liberal arts" course per semester. And even that was *cough cough wheeze* years ago now, so I barely remember any of it.
They say "write what you know," but I want to know everything so I can write about everything. Some people say I already think I do know everything, but I don't; I just act like it sometimes.
The older I get, the more I realize I don't really know how to think about things; I don't know how much of my personal philosophy is new and how much of it is just retreads of thoughts that have come before.
I suppose I could read, but reading is limited, especially if I lack the referents for what has come before, what the book has built on. Like reading T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land without knowing any of his allusions.
Well, just some random thoughts because I don't have much profound, enlightening or even humorous to say today. |
