Philosophy is best practised by people in general and not by philosophers alone. Philosophy is too often a luxury now, but in ancient Greece, carpenters, masons and beggars were the main practitioners. What I am trying to develop is a philosophical system where all the subjects can be taught.

If we include hedonistic philosophy in hospitals, the lives of patients suffering from cancer would be much, much better.

For the establishment, philosophy is both an elitist and an idealist discipline: In high school, it is a compulsory subject; at university, they teach the idealist line. They are conducting a conversation with themselves.

I discovered philosophy in my youth when I read 'wildly,' and thus I was exposed to the world of ideas.
