Concern

Decision-Making
"It has generally been assumed that of two opposing systems of philosophy, e.g., realism and idealism, one only can be true and one must be false; and so philosophers have been hopelessly divided on the question, which is the true one."
Systems
"A creative element is surely present in all great systems, and it does not seem possible that all sympathy or fundamental attitudes of will can be entirely eliminated from any human philosophy."
Sympathy

Science
"To be sure, the vast majority of people who are untrained can accept the results of science only on authority."
Science

Life
"The picture which the philosopher draws of the world is surely not one in which every stroke is necessitated by pure logic."
