Part of what is wrong with the view of American imperialism is that it is antithetical to our interests. We are better off when people are governing themselves.

However good an argument in philosophy may happen to be, it is generally not good enough Picture Quote #1

I am interested in 18th century natural philosophy, science, particularly botany, the study of hybridity in plants and animals, which, of course, then allows me to consider the hybridity of language Picture Quote #1

My philosophy has always been that I hope I have a good enough day to give me another one, I hope that I have a good enough year to give me another year. I know that’s cliched, but it’s the truth in how I approach my career Picture Quote #1

Philosophy may be defined as the art of asking the right question...awareness of the problem outlives all solutions. The answers are questions in disguise, every new answer giving rise to new questions Picture Quote #1
