Jozef Tichner
Myślenie według wartości1982
Once philosophy was born out of wonder for the world around us (Aristotle). And then also doubt (Descartes). Now, on our Earth, it is born out of pain. The quality of philosophy is determined by the quality of human pain, which philosophy wants to express and which it wants to remedy. Whoever does not see this is close to betrayal.
(translated from Polish by Krzysztof Wieczorek – 2019)
