After reading Kant all day, I decided to fall asleep to Fichte, then it hit me! Fichte's System of Ethics is such a solid text! I forgot how much I love this work

You can never have enough books (especially on Schelling & German Idealism). These are just some of the sources I have been working through for the last 6 weeks for a wonderful project I am writing on; for the Journal Cogency: On System & Conplexity in Classical German Philosophy

Leibniz's writing is so clear, deductive and logical. I love finding his major and minor premises and of course his long winded conclusions. This is truly philosophia!

Kant has a very special place in my heart. 18 years ago, I heard the words "Sapere Aude" --dare to know ..." have the courage to use your own reason" and these words changed my life. His philosophy is immense and is still important today! Happy 300th Birthday prince of Philosophy

R.I.P. Antonio Negri (90 years old). "Perhaps some day soon we will have arrived at the point when we can look back with irony at the barbaric old times when in order to be free we had to keep our own brothers & sisters slaves or constrained to inhuman sacrifices of freedom."
