Welcome to Litsy!

This was my first philosophy book. It was a little hard to get into but I ended up really enjoying it. A lot of his advise is still practical for today and the book has a very modern feeling to it 💛

What a great little book!!! Great insight and inspiration for the coming year. Bottom line: Live your life to the fullest every minute of every day. Don‘t “waste time”!

I wanted to get a leg up on my ancient philosophy class before school this fall. I‘ve owned this copy for years, stopping and starting it in bursts. I wasn‘t able to get through it all before the semester began, but I did finish it afterwards.

One thing I will say about Plato‘s dialogues is that they are often arduous and boring, but after having read some on my own, then in a college setting, their greatness became so much more apparent to me.

set up my grandma's new Shaw(rogers) Tv today, was super easy once I realized it was needing the second power cord...
I used to be better at this. 😓 😁

Philosophy, poetry, plays, essays, nonfiction that isn't history-based - which is why I've requested this on my #auldlangspine2026 form. I realise @monalyisha that this may be hard to match for so if some of the fiction genres I've listed/ticked have to be included, that's fine by me! 🤣🤣🤣

Confucius was born in toughly 500 BCE and it will take over a couple of centuries before his ideas have impact.

This afternoon, I went to a talk by all 4 authors of Les trois maisons de Michel Foucault“ (Foucault's 3 houses), a graphic work about Foucault's life and work, explained through the prism of his houses. The book is not in the database because it will be published in April 2026 by Presses Universitaires de Rennes,
a university press. Quite interesting, and I bagged 3 bookmarks 😁
Looking forward to Publication Day 😄

My teen has been talking to me about Nietzsche, so I'm dusting off my Twilight of the Idols and The Anti-Christ from college. I made notes in it, so I know I read it, but I remember nothing from this book except that it wasn't what I'd expected when I was 19 years old.
