History is Philosophy teaching by example.

Skepticism is a virtue in history as well as in philosophy.

History should be written as philosophy.

Europe was created by history. America was created by philosophy.

Hence poetry is something more philosophic and of graver import than history since its statements are rather of the nature of universals whereas those of history are singulars.

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history for poetry expresses the universal and history only the particular.

My cooking philosophy what I try to do is to make a cuisine where the produce and the product shines compared to some current trends that are maybe more adding additional things like molecular cuisine with a lot of additives and chemicals which are now showing that they could be bad for your health.

Some of us learned in a school of philosophy which taught that all was for the common good and nothing for oneself and have never in any case regarded the pursuit of happiness as anything other than an aberration of the human spirit.

My whole working philosophy is that the only stable happiness for mankind is that it shall live married in blessed union to woman-kind - intimacy physical and psychical between a man and his wife. I wish to add that my state of bliss is by no means perfect.

Life does not agree with philosophy: There is no happiness that is not idleness and only what is useless is pleasurable.
