Thoughts for the Day

A) The smallest gift from a cherished friend, even the simple act of giving their hand to you fondly or embracing you warmly, matters infinitely more than the worthiest treasures from an unknown or despised person/place.

B) All politics are ephemeral.

C) We don't need to get clear about semantics like the analytic philosophers worry about doing - we just need to attend to what words say in their etymology (and create new words if necessary).

D) I do philosophy not because I am strong of mind, but because I am weak of body.
