Leo Apostel - Work

Work

Apostel was an advocate of interdisciplinary research and the bridging of the gap between exact science and humanities.

In some of his so-called "natural philosophy" he worked in his beliefs as freemason. He wrote two books about it: Freemasonry: A Philosophical Essay in 1985, and Atheïstische spiritualiteit in 1998.

His ideas about atheistic religiosity are widely acknowledged.

Famous quotes containing the word work:

    ‘Men work together,’ I told him from the heart,
    ‘Whether they work together or apart.’
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Writing a book I have found to be like building a house. A man forms a plan, and collects materials. He thinks he has enough to raise a large and stately edifice; but after he has arranged, compacted and polished, his work turns out to be a very small performance. The authour however like the builder, knows how much labour his work has cost him; and therefore estimates it at a higher rate than other people think it deserves,
    James Boswell (1740–1795)
