Famous quotes containing the word philosophy:

    A novel is never anything but a philosophy put into images.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    ... if, as women, we accept a philosophy of history that asserts that women are by definition assimilated into the male universal, that we can understand our past through a male lens—if we are unaware that women even have a history—we live our lives similarly unanchored, drifting in response to a veering wind of myth and bias.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    At the very moment when someone is beginning to take philosophy seriously, the whole world believes the opposite.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
