It's about friendship, love and rhetoric. What sex is to the body, speech is to the soul. The entire dialogue reads like lyrical poetry to me. It's all about improving the chaos within to harmonize your soul. What a lovely thing for a friend to give... |
thats so true.
i wish a guy that was into me would give me a philosophy book.
hed win my heart.
hahaha i havent been thinking about relationships in months but as soon as you mentioned sex...
but i DID read your whole comment. its just you mentioned love and then...sex....so
but anyway im focusin so much on my schooling right now anyway.
yea i need to get into plato more but im not sure how right now im going to be able to get interested in him. i dont remember what my first philosophy book was.
i think i got interested in philosophy actually through reading the bible to be very honest and then i think i went straight to Sartre because he mainly known for writing about what i was interested in at the time of my life - which was where am i going and who am i really? and then i went to Foucault only because i found out about his book Madness and i read the whole book. well the whole one that i bought anyway. idk if theres more to it. and i was looking into the ways philosophy and psychology had a connection. but since i was new to it i was looking for a pretty direct connection that id understand.
