Excerpt from Attempts at TruthWhat is right? And Why must I do what is right? - the question of the standard with that of the sanction of duty. But we need not authority to prove that in all action, whether called moral or otherwise, it is feeling that moves, while the function of reason is to direct motion.

Excerpt from StoicismAs an adherent of the Peripatetic School myself, I do not hold a brief for the Stoics, but I have endeavoured to do them justice, and perhaps a little more, not having been on the alert to rob them of some borrowed plumes. The Porch has been credited with a great deal that really be longed to the Academy or the Lyceum. If you strip Stoicism of its paradoxes and its wilful misuse of language, what is left is simply the mora...

Excerpt from Deductive LogicOne critic, who was kind enough to look at this book in manuscript, recommended me to abandon the design of publishing It on the ground that my logic was too like all other logics another suggested to me to cut out a considerable amount of new matter.

Both rhetoric and dialectic were spoken of by the Stoics as virtues for they divided virtue in its most generic sense in the same way as they divided philosophy into physical, ethical, and logical. Rhetoric and...

If you strip Stoicism of its paradoxes and its wilful misuse of language, what is left is simply the moral philosophy of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, dashed with the physics of Heraclitus. Stoicism was not so much a new doctrine as the form under which the old Greek philosophy finally presented itself to the world at large. It owed its popularity in some measure to its extravagance. A great deal might be said about Stoicism as a religion and...
