Synthetic Philosophy

Famous quotes containing the words synthetic and/or philosophy:

“In every philosophical school, three thinkers succeed one another in the following way: the first produces out of himself the sap and seed, the second draws it out into threads and spins a synthetic web, and the third waits in this web for the sacrificial victims that are caught in it—and tries to live off philosophy.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“If this is philosophy it is at any rate a philosophy that is not in its right mind.”
