Courage

What I mean is courage is a kind of salvation. Socrates gives an illustration. “You know, he said, that dyers, when they want to dye wool for making the true sea-purple, begin by selecting their white color first; this they prepare and dress with much care and pains, in order that the white ground may take the purple hue in full perfection. The dyeing then proceeds and whatever is dyed in this manner becomes a fixed color, and no washing either with lyes or without them can take away the coloration.” Courage under all circumstances is the nature of things to be feared and not to be.

This is what Socrates termed courage, as indelibly fixed by nurture and training, not to be washed away by such potent lyes by sorrow, fear, and desire, pleasure they are all mighty solvents. Courage, this sort of universal saving power of true opinion in conformity with rules about real and false situations.

Truth

The saving grace of truth is bravery. Courage is a mighty agent, under all circumstances courage preserves, is the mightiest of all solvents in mind.

But what makes a person virtuous is justice. No doubt justice is somewhere: I struggle to catch sight of it, if you see it first, let me know so that it does not creep away, pass out of sight and escape.

Justice, there is no path, little light if I go about looking for what I already have I look not at what I am seeking, but what is far off in the distance; therefore I fail to recognize justice.

Justice is fairness, evenhandedness, it is the only virtue, which remains in a society when all the other virtues, temperance and courage and wisdom, are gone, therefore, l lower ye my bucket where I stand.

My challenge here

Whatever I admit to understanding is not merely to persuade you of my writing talent, which is not always distinct but sincere, I try never to tell anything but truth, though not always exquisitely.

My knowledge is formed by a method a discipline that rises gradually little by little to the highest point reachable.

This is my challenge I aim to refute all not with opinion but truth, never stumbling at any step of the argument I define. Knowledge is the natural gift of God look at the movements of the stars and the things in heaven in the perfect manner. Little things elaborated how absurd! Those who want to see truth must take a long and winding road, Nothing short should satisfy them or lose sight of the higher truth where all things become useful and advantageous good.

Philosophy has been cultivated for many ages by the most illustrious people. Every discussion here is a demonstration of the likenesses that was said by them before. I write to permeate and preserve their truth or a likeness of which can be found. Truth is the universal author of all things beautiful and right, parent of light in the world.

What is Philosophy?

Philosophy has been cultivated for many ages by the most illustrious philosophers. Every discussion is a demonstration of the likenesses that was before. I write to permeate and preserve truth or a likeness, I mean a likeness of everything to which can be found.

There are a gallery of noble philosophers and heroes. They were willing to exalt profound thought not opinion. They exhibited an eagerness to behold the highest truth, nourished in the spirit of it. There is a generation of philosophers the same as there are generations of plants and anything that is generated from opposition. Opposite meaning things such as just and unjust, good and evil, and the innumerable, other opposites that are generated out opposite.

I am drawn to philosophy absorbed in the pleasures of it drawn off like a stream into another channel striving after the noblest pursuit of all. Not blunted by the skeptics I live on a keen edge will not abate only until I have attain truth of divine beauty, wisdom, goodness, and the like; for they nourish my mind.

Those who wander in the region of wanting in knowledge are not philosophers. Also, those who have in their mind no clear pattern are unable to look at the absolute truth and vision of the world of beauty, goodness, justice. The nature of the philosopher, they always love knowledge of a sort that shows them the everlasting and fixed, not varying from generation and corruption. They are lovers of wisdom, lovers of all true being: they will never purposely receive into their mind lies, which they loathe.
