Famous quotes containing the word philosophy:

    “The proper method of philosophy consists in clearly conceiving the insoluble problems in all their insolubility and then in simply contemplating them, fixedly and tirelessly, year after year, without any hope, patiently waiting.”
    —Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    “And new Philosophy calls all in doubt,
    The element of fire is quite put out;
    The Sun is lost, and th’earth, and no mans wit
    Can well direct him where to look for it.”
    —John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
