>>11277296
The best way to go about forcing your mind open is either to write code to make a list of all philosophy works by page number, and read them starting with the shortest; the shorter works will have a higher likelihood of succinct presentations of ideas. Or torrent audiobooks of all the philosophers, not their works because you won't find them that way, in chronological order; you'd start with the presocratics. The best thinker is a lazy one.
