@johnmilbank3 Certainly no evolutionary advantage - just pleasure and beauty.

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@johnmilbank3 I look back to my working class grandparents. No car, no passports etc etc. But lived worthwhile and meaningful lives. And boy could gran skin a rabbit!

THIS IS SO INSPIRING!

Immanuel Kant's personal copy of Baumgarten's Metaphysica—the textbook he used for over 41 years—was filled with notes, questions, objections, and reflections in the margins.

Don't just read philosophy. Engage with it.

@scriptwren It’s one of the reasons I gave up.

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@TheDibsterX And your point is?

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@ChristopherF198 @janeclarejones Nicely eclectic. Good to see Bradley. Do they know how silly they sound…

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@CliffordSosis Nadir.

@johnmilbank3 Under Major.

@johnmilbank3 Last administration to have so many cantabrians? Notably Ken Clarke and Michael Howard.

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@johnmilbank3 @VivienStrickl11 Not as a duo. Healey was probably taught by the great Quentin Skinner and in the same college. English and HSPS a refreshing break from the tyranny of PPE.

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@johnmilbank3 As Berkeley showed.

@giles_fraser Shameful. It’s also time to reclaim the term Zionist, a badge I wear with pride.

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@scriptwren Or me!

@PeterTatchell The sin, not the sinner, I suppose. Her ideas were not mine!

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@ClarkeMicah And why should pupils be subsidised for a private benefit out of public money.

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@ClarkeMicah Non story. They didn’t choose.

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@_paullay It’s dry, but good. There are better books on Hobbes, eg, Skinner.

[Andrew Wood @APWood1960]

@CrewkerneMan But Thatcher was not a true Conservative.
