Estranho pensar que a filosofia randiana seja praticamente ignorada no Brasil. Talvez a nossa longa tradição estatizante e nosso apego tradicional ao altruísmo explique, mesmo que em parte, tal fenômeno. Rand não é apenas importante para que tenhamos uma nova visão de mundo e de indivíduo. Em terras brasileiras, a sua vida e o seu pensamento são verdadeiramente fundamentais.

Walden is Thoreau's account of his two-year experience living in a small cabin on the shores of Walden Pond near Concord, Massachusetts. In the book, he emphasizes the importance of living a simple, deliberate life and being self-sufficient.

O excelentă introducere în scrierile lui Seneca, în ceea ce înseamnă filosofia stoică și stoicismul: lecții comprimate pe înțelesul cititorului contemporan și sfaturi practice despre cum să duci o viață bună, despre umilință, dragoste, bătrânețe ș.a., extrase din învățăturile atemporale ale lui Seneca

A point-blank attempt on confusion itself. Marked by the dogged precision of one resolved to sort the universe with nothing more than a pen and a visceral hunger for understanding, this berserk dissection of the world stands alone—a sober yet dynamic testament both to what crystalline lucidity lines the unnervingly paradoxical, and what incontrovertible madness is tucked into the folds of the mundane.

In his book Pragmatism, William James attacked the transcendental, rationalist tradition in philosophy and tried to clear the ground for the doctrine he called radical empiricism. The book caused an uproar; it was greeted with praise, hostility, and ridicule. Determined to clarify the pragmatic conception of truth, James collected nine essays he had written on this subject before he wrote Pragmatism and six written later in response to criticisms of that volume by Bertrand Russell and others. He published the collection under the title "The Meaning of Truth" in 1909, the year before his death.

La fachada del mundo se apoya en lo que Schopenhauer llama la voluntad universal, ciega y sin propósito. La voluntad nos acarrea toda nuestra miseria y todo nuestro sufrimiento. la única esperanza es la de liberarnos de su poder y de los atavíos superficiales del individualismo y el egoísmo, que están a su merced.

На тему любви написаны тысячи книг и сказано такое множество слов, что одному человеку невозможно объять все их количество. Осмыслить ее как целостный духовный феномен, стало возможным благодаря философии. Первые попытки рационального осмысления любви были предприняты в Античности: Сократ считал, что истинная любовь вдохновляет человека на поиск истины, способствует духовному росту и преодолению эгоистических устремлений. Платон первым составил ее классификацию, определив виды.
