Quotes From Philosophy
I'm not a philosopher, alright? Sure, I have a BA in Philosophy with a minor in English from U.T. Arlington, but that doesn't mean much. Truth is, I was a student with a B average, I skipped as many classes as they allowed me to, didn't participate in any philosophical discussions, and I took almost as many high level English & History classes for electives as I did Philosophy classes. And UTA is only a state school . . . hardly a bastion of developed intellect thought. At some point I noticed that I was just there to finish what I started. I could care less that I have a degree in Philosophy, but I do still find it to be a very interesting subject.
So, with that said, you have to understand that I only read philosophy as a hobby. All I'm going to do in this section is store quotes from old books I've read or new ones that I am currently wading through. I might add some random thoughts about those quotes, but don't look for any prolegomena, dialogues, or treatises on the nature of anything here.
