So unausbleiblich wie die Katze spinnt, wenn man sie streichelt, malt süße Wonne sich auf das Gesicht des Menschen, den man lobt und zwar in dem Felde seiner Prätension, sei das Lob auch handgreiflich lügenhaft. Oft trösten ihn über reales Unglück oder über die Kargheit, mit der für ihn die beiden, bis hier her abgehandelten Hauptquellen unseres Glückes fließen, die Zeichen des fremden Beifalls.

Platone diceva che conoscere bene significa adeguarsi a Dio. Ogni atto del conoscere era per il grande filosofo quasi una ripetizione dell'opera del Demiurgo, del creatore cioè e dell'ordinatore del mondo ideale eterno, del cielo, del tutto. L'educazione intellettuale era dunque anch'essa un'operazione divina. Vista alla luce di queste affermazioni, vecchie di due e più millenni ma non per questo meno risonanti di verità e di saggezza, l'opera di Atkinson ci appare in tutta la sua attualità e importanza. E' questa, infatti, essenzialmente un'opera di educazione.

Human beings are the greatest natural resource on the planet. If it sometimes doesn’t seem that way, it’s because our inherent wealth is hidden under layers of confusion. Much of what we mistake for reality is really a jumble of the tendencies, attitudes, and preconceptions that are part of our individual human baggage. Although we may understand this, we usually believe our thoughts accurately reflect reality. This hidden assumption is a major cause of confusion, which gives rise to conflicts - in our society, in the larger world, and at times within ourselves.

L'occident contemporain est le théâtre d'une montée irrésistible des angoisses, depuis les plus petites - ce que nous mangeons, ce que nous respirons - aux plus grandes - annonces millénaristes de l'apocalypse et résurgence des nouveaux diables.

Filozofický esej z roku 1936 spadá do posledního období literární tvorby Josefa Čapka a je počítán mezi jeho nejvýznamnější opusy díky snaze o postižení smyslu a podstaty lidské existence. Autor a jeho druhé já zde vedou živou rozpravu o podstatných setkáních na cestě životem: s tělem, duší, různými věky člověka, smrtí, přírodou, uměním. Se vzorem v postavě v Komenského Labyrintu světa a ráje srdce, líčí symbolickou cestu člověka a konečný obrat do vlastního nitra, "do domu srdce svého".

We have intrigued the topics of narcissism for decades, and social scientists now agree that the topic has become a new epidemic. The term narcissism started about 2000 years ago when Ovid wrote the Myth of the Narcissus, which tells the story of Narcissus, a beautiful Greek hunter who one day looks and loves his reflection in a water pool. He has his own appearance obsessed and can not leave his reflection until he dies. The concept of narcissism was first suggested by the famous psychoanalyst.

The core concept of this illuminating book is that the core of human existence is self-consciousness. What we are depends on what choices we make and what we do. Dominant personality traits primarily drive our life decisions. In the fields of psychology, philosophy, biology, and artificial intelligence, self-awareness is studied. From a philosophical point of view, self-awareness reflects the apparent belief that a person is distinct from others as an entity and has his or her thoughts. It can also describe the awareness of one's own identity's very heart.

Positive thinking is one of the fundamental attributes which can have an effect on both our mental and physical well-being. With it we can overcome serious obstacle in life, learn to life with chronic conditions, or improve our work and personal lives. Without it we run the risk of failing at every turn and never realizing our full potential. This book will go in depth into the optimal ways of changing your thought patterns that will help you develop your positivity, optimism, and happiness.
