That quote is so insulting to human intelligence.

>>10013754

Art has always been for the rich and overly educated, today's art is no different.

Let these sopa de macaco third worlders do whatever they like. Not like they're civilised or anything.

>>10013680
No, because.

Thanks, but I'm looking more for online resources... not necessarily a whole book.

You're so horrible. Can't understand it on your own yet not willing to invest more time to understand it either?

I have the Penguin Classics edition above and, although I haven't read any other translations, I sometimes get the feeling the translator may have romanticised some of his notes. I just find it hard to believe someone would write so formally and superfluously to themselves.

Get out, pleb.

There is this one left wing guy who gets mentioned around here sometimes who eventually grew into cultural conservatism. Can't think of his name right now but hopefully someone sees this and knows who I'm talking about.

>>10014453
Zizek, Evola?

>>10014453
MacIntyre?

I do not know for sure wether he is conservative socially, but he did become a Thomist despite having Marxist origins.

>order used book (quoted obviously unread)
>first page is loose like some retard creased it hard and two of the pages are dog eared

ordered one, dont recall if new or used but seemed never opened. a paperback. sat for a few months. read it, when i got to page 82, there was a 57 page gap, just missing. binding was perfect, no noticable irregularity. not sure how that happens

>order "The Poems" Vol I of W. B. Yeats hardback used for 4.99, usually $50 new
>condition said "good"
>get it, it's actually in mint fucking condition, like no one ever even opened it before

One of the best buys of my life desu desu

>personal philosophy

1. ditch the "personal philosophy" and seek the Truth.
personal philosophies are for relativist autists.

But to answer your question, not having a 'philosophy' means you don't know yourself, you don't know your origin and purpose, or what value life holds. You might have a sense or intuitive feeling about these things but you aren't able to coherently express them to yourself, or others.

Basically you would be living like an animal trapped in its own subjectivity, being tossed around by memes and hidden forces; "the unexamined life is not worth living"

>>10013264
You would literally have to make yourself braindamaged to not have a philosophy

>>10013264
>is this even possible?

yes. it's as easy as living without netflix, an iphone or a personal library of rare pepes.

you just have to remind yourself every day as you wake up:

i am not a dickhead

think about what the story would be like if he wore a protective shoe.. Not that interesting.

Being almost invincible leaves a mark on his personality. He thinks nobody can defeat him, hence the sandals. Pros in their own fields of expertise also often avoid wearing protective suits or neglect safety standards.

>>10013189
It wouldn't have mattered if he wore a big boot. Death was his destiny and the arrow was guided by the Gods

Yes, whilst writing my diary.

You just jelly of my glorious opening trips baka desu senpai

>>10012986
Read it like 7 years ago and it had a pretty profound effect on me at the time and combined with meditation it was the most positive frame of mind I've ever been in. I can't remember a single line or idea from it now and enjoy my depression and bitterness more than being happy so I won't be revisiting it.

>>10013053
depression and bitterness sound more better than appreciating every moment

thanks for the input

Read Meister Eckhart instead

>>10012972
You're right.
Woolf is also gonna get you pussy. If a qt asks what you're reading, it's always her. Don't say shit like Nabakov, Pynchon or other memesters. She won't recognize them.

all frogposters are under 18

>>10012972
George Eliot, Sarah Kane, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, Murasaki Shikibu

>generic soundtrack
>80% of the cgi is terrible
>kids get little to no development
>pennywise is not charming in the slightest
>no sense of paranoia or horror, just soulless jumpscares
>the "scary" moments were laughable even for the typical theater audience

C'mon man why are you downloading SD rips of shows

>>10012868
The Nag Hammadi texts, right?
>le_sad_demiurge.png

>>10012875
Yeah, I only saw the review after I bought it and now I don't even have any motivation to get into Gnosticism.

>>10012875
Sorry it's me again. I read more reviews which said that the 1977 version (https://www.amazon.com/Nag-Hammadi-Library-English/dp/0060669292/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1505208181&sr=8-1&keywords=nag+hammadi+1977) is better. Should I refund the 2007 version and get myself the 1977 version?
