Text Quotes
I think philosophers can do things akin to theoretical scientists, in that, having read about empirical data, they too can think of what hypotheses and theories might account for that data. So there’s a continuity between philosophy and science in that way. (Philosophers Quotes)
I will admit, like Socrates and Aristotle and Plato and some other philosophers, that there are instances where the death penalty would seem appropriate. (Philosophers Quotes)
I read all the great philosophers but most people just hear what they want to hear and it makes it easy for them to brand us devil worshippers. (Philosophers Quotes)
One of the most difficult tasks confronting philosophers is to descend from the world of thought to the actual world. (Philosophers Quotes)
I, for one, struggle a little bit with a $250,000 education for a philosophy degree. They are a wonderful people, but we can’t employ philosophers in manufacturing in the United States. We need a one- or two-year technical add-on for a high school. (Philosophers Quotes)
Whereas many philosophers and theologians appear to possess an emotional attachment to their theories and ideas........scientists feel no qualms about suggesting different but mutually exclusive explanations for the same phenomenon. (Philosophers Quotes)
The greatest statesmen, philosophers, humanitarians ... have not been able to put an end to war. Why place that demand on photography? (Philosophers Quotes)
Few if any political philosophers have had the courage of tackling the Cold War. Even the best of them have kept silent or have stated some bromides glossing over the serious shortcomings of our side, such as racism, social injustice, extreme income disparities, the exploitation of the Third World, and environmental degradation. (Philosophers Quotes)
Philosophers see no harm in the Jesuits other than in their effect on humanity and the sciences. The vulgar and especially the prejudiced only hate them from an envy and jealousy born out of conspiracy and intrigue at an organisation which overshadows them. (Philosophers Quotes)
Philosophers play with the word, like a child with a doll.... It does not mean that everything in life is relative. (Philosophers Quotes)
Philosophers of biology generally recognize that evolutionary fitness (roughly, an organism’s ability to survive and reproduce in its environment) is multiply realizable. (Philosophers Quotes)
I started asking the big questions that I had asked in college, that my compatriots the Greek philosophers had asked, like ‘what is a good life?’ Socrates famously said that ‘The unexamined life is not worth living.’ I started asking these questions from the starting point of ‘what is success?’ (Philosophers Quotes)
Philosophers, especially metaphysicians, explore features of reality and of our mental life that are different from those explored by scientists. (Philosophers Quotes)
Contemporary philosophers are facing problems that were unthinkable only one century ago, such as whether space and time are mutually Independent, whether there is objective chance or only uncertainty, whether physics can explain chemical change, whether our behavior is fully determined by our genomes, whether ideation can change the brain, or whether either the economy or ideas are the ultimate roots of the social. (Philosophers Quotes)
Two of my favorite political philosophers, Mao Zedong and Mother Teresa - not often coupled with each together, but the two people that I turn to most. (Philosophers Quotes)
I believe that any individual who has spiritually awakened in our time, to the degree that he or she finds a higher and deeper motive for living, is going to be driven to fight the good fight in one way or another... And in order to fight the good fight, we have to engage, we have to get into the ring, not just stand outside it and be philosophers. (Philosophers Quotes)
The figure of Satan and the fires of hell have been demythologized by modern Christian biblical scholars, theologians and philosophers. (Philosophers Quotes)
Many scientists think that philosophy has no place, so for me it’s a sad time because the role of reflection, contemplation, meditation, self inquiry, insight, intuition, imagination, creativity, free will, is in a way not given any importance, which is the domain of philosophers. (Philosophers Quotes)
The Bible defines almost nothing because it isn’t a book for scholars and philosophers or free thinkers. It’s a book for people who want help. It’s primarily a book for pastors. They’re the ones that can use it in a way so that it actually achieves its purpose. (Philosophers Quotes)
What must the English and French think of the language of our philosophers when we Germans do not understand it ourselves? (Philosophers Quotes)
Even as I pursued a doctorate in the history of ideas in my native Denmark, I realized I had neither the encyclopedic training nor the passion for cool logic - not to mention the nerve - to follow in the footsteps of classical liberal philosophers and economists such as Robert Nozick, Friedrich Hayek, and Milton Friedman. (Philosophers Quotes)
I feel friendship towards philosophers, but towards sophists, teachers of literature, or any other such kind of godforsaken people, I neither feel friendship now, nor may I ever do so in the future. (Philosophers Quotes)
The quest for our origin is the sweet fruit’s juice which maintains satisfaction in the minds of the philosophers. (Philosophers Quotes)
God created man in His own image, says the Bible; philosophers reverse the process: they create God in theirs. (Philosophers Quotes)
It would be fun too to put some of the great philosophers and political scientists of the past couple centuries into a time machine, have them look at the world today, and see what they think. Imagine Schumpeter, Malthus, Hobbes, Nietzsche, Marx, and more! That would be good fun. (Philosophers Quotes)
Take time for good books; time to absorb the thoughts of poets and philosophers, seers and prophets. (Philosophers Quotes)
It is my intent to beget a good understanding between the chymists and the mechanical philosophers who have hitherto been too little acquainted with one another’s learning. (Philosophers Quotes)
A good half of the effort of understanding what the Indian philosophers were after - and their subtleties make most of the great European philosophers look like schoolboys. (Philosophers Quotes)
As long as I’m dealing in honesty, I may as well admit that I have been more influenced (as a person) by my childhood readings of Tolkien and Lewis than I have been by any philosophers I read in college and grad school. The events and characters in Narnia and Middle Earth shaped my ideals, my dreams, my goals. Kant just annoyed me. (Philosophers Quotes)
Virtually every subject is most effectively learned directly from the greatest thinkers, historians, artists, philosophers, scientists, prophets and their original works. Great works inspire greatness. Mediocre or poor works inspire mediocre or poor learning. The great accomplishments of humanity are the key to quality education. (Philosophers Quotes)
