“Athens, 2400 years ago. It’s a compact place: around 250,000 people live here. There are fine baths, theatres, temples, shopping arcades and gymnasiums. Art is flourishing, and science too. You can pick up excellent fish down at the harbour in Piraeus. It’s warm for more than half the year….”

Donald Trump should become a philosopher.
did he just do the mavrick sign Hecccc
Hey School of Life! Your videos are wonderful and has been very helpful in my understand of philosophy 🙂
Could you guys do videos on Bauman, Ulrich Bech, Baudrillard, Fanon, David Harvey, Simone De Beauvoir, or Zizek!!
I would not argue that he was the greatest, but the first is just not factual at all.
Nowadays, he could receive a lot of hate for sounding too much like a cultural marxist – even though he and Karl Marx examined the world quite differently.
how can you not feature Berkeley?!
Plato has an epic beard! All HAIL PLATO BEARD!
The great issue is that philosophers do not want to be rulers.
Plato for president 2k20
Wasn’t it Aristotle who spoke of “Eudaimonia” in his book of Ethics ?

Thank you, it was really interesting
Love those who love you
But never worship those
Who treat you as fool
That is is the Rule Rule Rule!
I believe that, as a species, human beings define their reality through suffering and misery
If you want more philosophy go on wekissthesky.org
Texts speaking on the primacy of struggle are rare, expensive, and for the most part written in elite gibberish. wekissthesky.org has various philosophical, literary, and supreme court decisions in common speak. The texts have been translated into aave, various regional dialects, and memes.
You left out a lot of stuff about the “guardians”, that whole idea of philosopher kings being guardians originates from the “myth of metals” in the republic.
Me agree
Bless you
Well thanks to the Trump-Cucks and Putin-Cultists, we’ve regressed so far back Plato would have a seizure if he was on Facebook or Twitter.
Type in; How democracy really works.
Eww wtf Angie Merkel. Don’t put her picture on a philosophy video. That woman is far from logical.
Make a video about Miyamoto Musashi please !!
No offense to you but I’m so bored I fucking hate Philosophy I hate college I’m sick of this bullshit this is the 90th video I’ve seen and I don’t understand shit I wanna drop out of college fuCk
marvelous, !!!
That girl in love segment is gorgeous
this is real learning and knowledge.. i feel the human race is still very primitive and not yet fully evolved
who gives a fuck what he thinks
Lixo
Wow i didn’t know Plato was as shallow as most of us..hahaha….
He talks Muslim point of view on Democracy. Until your a philosopher
But Plato hated Artists and Poets.
The Plato mother fucker sounded like he never lifted a hammer in his life or did anything worth a fuck besides ramble on like the bullshit artist he was. It takes two seconds of reading his bullshit philosophy to see the man had anything but wisdom and was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. I don’t care how smart you pretentious fucks think you are, if you have never used your brain and body to actually create something than your brain will rot away and start going into overdrive with bullshit like Plato spilled out.
I don’t like how you attacked following your heart.. Following your heart and intution is the key to finding your truth for this life and being at peace
Not good
