i want to cry for a thousand lives i'll never live

hi I'm looking for books about the conditions that historically precede civil wars.
I think it would be good to know about to maybe help stop that sort of thing in the future.
thanks

Imagine reading only around 268 books in your life. Sad, I need to read as much as I can before I return to the void, at least I read more this year.

>And you do the same in me. And that is miraculous. For when I, after losing myself, win myself back through you then I posess me through you. If I posess myself through you I posess more you than me, am closer to you than to me because I only come to myself through you. This is the power of Amor compared to the power of Mars.

What are thoughts, really? And what does it mean to think? Can one just sit down and stare at a wall to do this activity? How intentional is it? Are we always thinking? Is it important to listen to others about our thinking? If so, how much?

Why is Odysseus so based?
Why did Hegel do it?
Why did Plato and Aristotle have such a silly disagreement?
What did that stranger do; why did he deserve to get shot?
Are there irreconcilable notions with respect to teleology and deontology?

What are the best book about buddhism?

Anyone here trying to write in their second language?

>be me
>born in Germany
>at 11 years old parents decide to move to Denmark
>at 16 years old we move to England

So thanks to my parents I now speak an infantile German, my Danish is laughable, and my English is embarrassing.

People think I speak three languages, I think I speak none fluently. I'm considering going back to Germany just because I don't have an accent and I might be able to catch up on vocabulary...

Anyway share your stories.
