Maybe the world exists precisely because in general it is better than nothing? Some philosophers think so. They call themselves "axiarchists" (from the Greek "value is the most important!") and argue that space could have emerged in response to the need for value. If they are right, then the world (and our existence in it) may be better than we think. We should take a closer look around to notice its subtle virtues – for example, hidden harmonies and small joys.

Philosophers of all time will always talk about reason - because reason is exactly what every society has always lacked.

Philosophy asserts only what everyone recognizes.

When asked why people give alms to the poor and do not give to philosophers, he said: "Because they know: they may become lame and blind, but they will never be wise."

Philosophers have traced the world, whose representatives follow in the footsteps of philosophers.

I believe that we still have Soviet ideology inside us. In my opinion, it was correct. Russia declares internationalism, respect for other peoples, the right of other peoples to vote. And all this happened in Soviet times. This was also said by Russian philosophers and writers in the 18th and 19th centuries. This is typical of Russia and Russian culture. This ideology exists. Although it has not been formed into a kind of religious order, as the Communist Party of the Soviet Union was. It is amazing that Russia made a religion out of pragmatic Western economic theory. And the CPSU was a religious order. Russians are not atheists. Every time they manage to find faith in the moment that they need. Therefore, the communists have always had a problem with other churches.

The realization that all these famous philosophers and scientists were mistaken and that the Universe is actually changing, expanding and evolving came only in the XX (20) century.

The book by British journalist and documentary filmmaker Frances Stonor Saunders presents for the first time shocking evidence of the CIA's manipulation of cultural policy during the Cold War. On the basis of meticulously collected archival information, the author describes the activities of the CIA in financing and coordinating left-wing intellectuals and cultural figures in Western Europe and the United States in order to alienate the intelligentsia from left-wing ideas, persuade them to fight against the USSR and instill sympathy for the "American way." The CIA-sponsored Congress for Cultural Freedom with offices in 35 countries was the main mechanism and platform for this work, which involved such famous writers and philosophers as Raymond Aron, André Malraux, Arthur Koestler, George Orwell and many others.

Beggar philosophers walk the streets and beg for justification.

He cried out: Help!

Suffering in the pre-scientific world was not only a generally accepted fact - it was also extolled. The philosophers of Antiquity did not see happiness as a virtue. On the contrary, they considered self-denial to be a virtue, because it was pleasant to enjoy life, it was dangerous. In the truest sense: it was only necessary for some asshole to relax, and after two minutes half the village burned out.

From today I put tailors above philosophers! Tailors bring beauty to life. This is a hundred times more valuable than all thoughts, even if they are deep as abysses!

Philosophies mean as much as philosophers. The more greatness in a person, the more truth in his philosophy.
