Is there any philosophical work you've read that actually improved your life in a practical way? Not just made you think or gave you wisdom, but made you actually live better.

Nietzsche

The Crocodile, by Dostoevsky, gave me a good perspective on the world. I think about it a lot.

why do you spoonfeed stupid niggers like op?
>>25173272Well, I had the spoon in my hand already anon, and there was a little hungry birdy right in front of me. Are you some kind of faggot that doesn't feed little birdies?
Nietzsche + Camus
>>25172950Schiller's Aesthetic Education of ManAnd Stirner's 'My Self-Enjoyment' section in The Ego and Its Ownboth helped me develop a better version of my definition of happiness, that was less about achievement and more about feeling the actual harmony of the moment. Their words live through me at all times now, I breathe and feel much more content, much more powerful, I lament less about the future or the past (Emerson also emphasized the present, I like him as well)
Foucault
>>25172950Marcus Aurelius
>>25172950Lance S. Bush
>>25173017I can’t even disagree with this.
