  • *You* are all idiots.he is explaining the "Platonic" understanding of art. vis a vis...PLATO..You all represent ignorant people who think they know something. Also, I may add, no philosophy, as no true art, is wrong..even if proven wrong later. I tall helps all assists in the formulation of truth/understanding. ..get an education. Learn something firt then talk about it.

  • knowledge is not power its creative energy

  • TBH, if it werent for my humanities exam I wouldnt even be here... but this actually is quite interesting. Might stick around here for a little bit, methinks. But my my look at how old these comments are! Seriously this just saddens me how very little the attention of *most* people on deep subjects and waste their time on listening to *crap* music 8D (my opinion)

  • Lol hypocrites...

  • knowledge is power knowledge gives you the power of the universe .. knowledge gives you the power to change your life for the better ... of course true knowledge is in form ... but as far as the knowledge we can abtain in are realm ... that knowledge will give you the power to anything ...literally anything since anything is possible ... knowledge makes the impossible possible ... so its all in how you define power ...

  • power as defined in physics P=dW/dt, work per unit time. i.e. creative energy ^_^, kind of a stretch really, but there you have it

  • I'm supposedly related to him - apparently. I know nothing about him though. Obviously. yawn.
