RE: Act from the heart

in ART LOVERS5 years ago

I'm trying to remember where I read it, or who it was... (it may have been Socrates as quoted by Plato), but the original Greek thinking by one philosopher was that 'philosophy' was meant to be a practice of understanding through reason the desires of the Heart.

Somewhere along the way, it became twisted into the cold, heartless, and disembodied teachings.

Sort:  

Perhaps Descartes with "I think and therefore I am" set the cornerstone for cold and extremely rational philosophy. But here we are, with a heart nonetheless.
