When I was in highschool one time after school I was at the local book store reading Plato's Republic, my first introduction to Philosophy. Anyway and some guy, probably in his fifties with two little children remarked at how young I was, how he was impressed etc etc. He told me to read a man named Strauss who wrote about The Republic. I said thanks and will do, he made another praising complement and then went over to look at the classical musical records. Tfw never read it, what was he recommending me?

He wasn't wearing any shoes.

What's the emotional feeling of being an ENFP? I thought that was more Infp area.

It's all in the hands in this picture but no one realises it. Sure the ass is nice but it's not the genuine centre.

I'm an Entp and show compassion to all those who suffer unnecessarily. I'm also an idealist but am just capable of both worlds.

>hahaha oh boi you are insecure as fuck you need to talk about your brother to talk about yourself
Was Odysseus insecure? But none the less he stated his name for social praise at the cost of his rational foresight in seeing that the troll would curse him. Entps aren't actually insecure, we just place value in ego rubs, even though funnily enough we don't actually care about what others think and innately think of ourselves more valuable.

Just an idiosyncrasy I suppose.

>Tfw I read the entirety of the Greeks before even knowing the basics of poetry (though advanced in many philosophical aesthetic theory). I am directly about to start reading the Romans and Shakespeare/Beowulf, should I read these basics of poetry first (as well as anthology)?

I don't want to reread all of the Greek poets and playwrights, do I? Or can I wait like 5 years and just do it when I decide I should do a rereading for memory and clarification?
