Quotations

Philosophy is not the owl of Minerva that takes flight after history has been realized in order to celebrate its happy ending; rather, philosophy is subjective proposition, desire, and praxis that are applied to the event.

Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri, Empire

"'Philosophy' is a word which has been used in many ways, some wider, some narrower. I propose to use it in a very wide sense, which I will now try to explain."

Bertrand Russell A History of Western Philosophy

Philosophy makes progress not by becoming more rigorous but by becoming more imaginative.

Richard Rorty, Introduction to Truth and Progress: Philosophical Papers, Volume 3 (1998).

To philosophise is to learn to die – philosophising is a soaring up to the Godhead – the knowledge of Being as Being.

Karl Jaspers, Philosophy and Science, World Review Magazine, March 1950.

Philosophy is questions that may never be answered. Religion is answers that may never be questioned.

Anonymous; quoted in

"Too much philosophy makes men mad." ~ Alan Judd, The Noonday Devil (1987)

"'You only think you are you barnpots,' shouted angry farmers from the meadows. 'Shut that row up! You're frightening the chickens, you lot and your bloody philosophy. You can't eat philosophy can you? Where would you be if us farmers went round spouting statements like that, eh? Dead, that's where you'd be! Because there'd be naff all to eat!"

Mike Harding 'Rambling on'

Physics and philosophy are at most a few thousand years old, but probably have lives of thousands of millions of years stretching away in front of them. They are only just beginning to get under way.

Physics and Philosophy, by James Jeans (1942), p.217.
