I always hated that one.

Me butler, me like my master. Oh wait, he Nazi. Never mind me no like now.

Are there the great types of book which cascade and create a ton of other possibilities. Such as James bond being the perfect example of agent creativity and it loses it's luster the more it is made, but from James bond are many similar or related other films of that specific great book type.

If you were switched on, you'd think, 'how can it not be fair and square?'

Science is literally anti-Socratic for its emphasis on physical reality instead of the spiritual. Remember that Socrates hated Anaxogras for talking about physical matters and not the whole.

You are just spouting off insane bullshit. There are lots of mythical and heretical creatures such as ifrits and djinn in the Arabian Nights stories. Lots of immoral conduct too. While most of the evil people get their comeuppance in some way there are still loads of evil shit that just happens and the characters are like “oh well. That’s life.” It’s not strictly a Muslim moral play.

> Meanwhile Proust reads exactly like all the 100s of european writers just stringing together subordinate clause with romantic inagery.

Calling Proust bad is one thing but calling him unoriginal is just moronic. There is no one who writes like him.

Clearly, the fault lies with Joyce for not appealing to your base mind.

TIL Proust and Pasolini were media junkies. Okay, thanks for your reductive elitist media trashing. I have taken it to heart.

Okay then that is even better to not care about the Greeks. Better yet, go back to your “ideal chair” which totally exists in a parallel dimension.

Proust sort of but it is intentional because the narrator complains about his memory problems at various times and many iconsistencies are actually intentional like the however many pages he reiterates the mole of Albertine was on the wrong side of the cheek from what he previously said.

Moronic Christards like to assert their god is the “good” despite the fact the Bible is filled with divine command theory.

>anon asks for verse that says that the Bible is "the highest authority"
>Protanon cites a verse that says that scripture is "profitable"
>"profitable" = "highest authority"???

Schopenhauer is literally secular Christianity. He called Christianity “absolute truth but simplified for the masses.”

>the peer review process has negative traits, therefore it has no virtuous traits
Composition fallacy, brainlet

What is with brainlets on this board calling any analogy they don't like "false equivalence"

Not only was Euthyphro in the wrong but he is not even a real person. He was a caricature of a zealous religious dolt and his name means the equivalent of “smooth brain” in attic Greek. You’re defending a parody character.

A cruel and crude old book.

>I have struggled with Proust’s for years now, trying to get through it, and confess to wondering whether it is worth the effort, decoding all those long convoluted sentences about the minutiae of 19th century French aristocratic life. Sometimes I think it is a bit of an ironic joke, spending years on a book with the title ‘In Search of Lost Time’, time which I will never get back.

>the fact such words are frequently used on 4channel means that they're not pejoratives

>if (The Balbec steeple) were a pianist then it could REALLY play!

Unironically what did Léonie mean by this? I have been tossing this line around in my head the past hour.
