Ser humano es un arte. No es una ciencia. Si fuera una ciencia, tendríamos definiciones aceptadas, teorías confirmadas, respuestas unívocas, protocolos y manuales para la vida. Pero no los tenemos. Ser humano es un arte. Un arte que cada individuo—con todos los deseos, incertidumbres, dudas, miedos y derrotas que son inherentes a nuestra existencia—tiene que dominar. Sólo así podremos alcanzar nuestra humanidad, la cual nos permitirá vivir en la verdad, crear belleza, ser justos, tener compasión.

In the course of this essay, Tolstoy attempts to find answers to the greatest questions of philosophy through science, philosophy, eastern wisdom, and the opinions of his fellow novelists. Finding no workable solution in any of these, Tolstoy recognizes the deep religious convictions of ordinary people as containing the key to true answers. The first attempt at its publication took place in 1882, but Tolstoy's work was removed from the journal by the Orthodox Church. The text was later published in Geneva in 1884 and in Russia as late as 1906.

This is the best of Emerson's later works, qualifying his earlier popular essays, series one and two, with the heavier hand of experience. The Conduct of Life ostensibly is a set of essays about how to live life but also is an amalgam of what life taught Emerson. Ralph Waldo Emerson (May 25, 1803-April 27, 1882) was an American essayist, lecturer, and poet, who led the Transcendentalist movement of the mid-19th century.

Después de sobrevivir a los campos de concentración en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Auschwitz entre ellos, la finitud y el sufrimiento fueron un constante asunto de preocupación existencial y filosófica para Viktor Frankl.

Chi è il Dio dei monoteismi? Non certo il Dio di cui discutono atei e credenti, ma un Dio tragico e assoluto, drammatico nella sua Unità e apertura al mondo. È il concetto più alto: pensarlo significa affondare negli abissi del monoteismo, scorgere l'imperscrutabilità di questa presenza-assenza che da sempre ingombra la vita dell'uomo. Ma è anche il Dio che irrompe nella storia con uno sguardo di Amore verso l'Uomo e si fa sorgente di libertà e giustizia.

En el Discurso del método, Descartes parece buscar y moverse en un elegante equilibrio entre la crítica y la prudencia, de tal forma que su obra, aparte del valor puramente reflexivo, se podría percibir como una sugestiva propuesta de conducta vital. Persiste en una separación entre fe religiosa y trabajo científico que se corresponde enteramente con las necesidades filosóficas de su contexto social histórico.

L'ansia della psichiatria di accreditarsi come scienza, sul modello delle scienze della natura, ha portato all'oggettivazione del folle nella più completa rimozione della sua soggettività. Quello che per un greco antico era un "invasato dal dio", per un medievale un "posseduto dal demonio", per la scienza psichiatrica diventa un "malato". L'uso di termini come mente e corpo, apparato psico-fisico, psico-somatico, bio-psicologico dicono che la psichiatria non ha mai riconosciuto l'unità dell'esistenza, ma solo la composizione delle parti.

Democritus. Bring the Stranger, bring the Stranger. Let us see how he is put together. I smell one goodish ingredient, but the compound is newfangled, yes {sniffing), and ill mixed. Alcihiades. You can’t possibly scent him at this distance. Not even a dog could. For a Christian he is rather well washed. Democritus. Before you contradict an old man, my fair friend, you should endeavor to understand him. The Stranger might be as clean as a river-god, who cannot live out of running water, and I should not be prevented from discerning the odor of his thoughts.

Henry David Thoreau discusses walking, the importance of nature, and the human need for walking in the wilderness.

There are rules everywhere and anywhere in our world and daily lives. Everywhere we go, there are signs telling us what to do or what not to do. In addition to those signs and verbalized rules, there are some unwritten rules that are still expected to be followed - even rules that we become influenced by that we either are unaware of or even take advantage of, like the law of physics.

Le Symbolisme est un mouvement littéraire et artistique de la fin du 19ème siècle, d'origine française, s'insirant de la spiritualité, de l'imagination et des rêves. Il s'agit d'une conception spirituelle du monde : trouver d'autres moyens d'expression pour dépasser la simple représentation réaliste; les symbolistes utilisent généralement des images et des analogies pour évoquer le monde, suggérer les états d'âme et les idées abstraites sans les expliciter, alors que la pensée logique exploite les données réelles.

Lautstark schwingen sich selbsternannte Tribunen des Volkes, esoterische "Querdenker" und autoritäre Demagogen zu Verteidigern der demokratischen Ordnung auf, deren Werte sie eigentlich ablehnen. Um Gefolgschaft zu organisieren, schüren sie Ängste vor drohendem Chaos und spinnen Verschwörungstheorien über anonyme Mächte, die das Schicksal der Nation bestimmen. Vorschläge zur Lösung komplexer gesellschaftlicher Probleme sind ihre Sache nicht.
