Can one completely fathom the reality of another’s perspective? Is Philosophy worthy of discipline?

circadian08 asked:


Sense our perspectives, memories, virtues, and attitudes of each individual varies is there any validity in philosophy? Other than the fact that we can understand a philosophy, but only relatively, does lose its power as it disconnects from its source, like a game of telephone? How can we be sure a philosphy is being interpretted as intended by the philosopher? Are philosophers just leaders with sensible, rational, or acceptable answers to the realities that we follow?

lvplts asked:


I am planning to give a short talk to an art study group where the theme is portraits. I have not decided on the particular portrait, but I wonder if there is a philosophy of art around portraits.

Any books that talk of this?
thanks

Is there a quote that embodies my philosophy that not living a bad life is not necessarily living a good life?

Rog H asked:


Here’s my philosophy:
The path that is good is different from the path that is not bad.
The path that is good leads you to living a good life, and making the world a better place.
The path that is not bad might lead you away from a bad life, but does not necessarily lead to living a good life.

I’m sure I’m not the only one with this idea, but does anyone know of an existing quote that would basically say the same thing?

Philosophy is an interest of mine.
Sometimes it overwhelms me and makes me feel insecure.
I like the prospect of studying it at university/ college.
Is it something you become accustomed too.
