"Thoughtfulness
is a good in itself and a pleasure to engage in. But thoughtfulness
brings us to moral conclusions and thus directs us from thought to action. Philosophy
serves a purpose and has thus an instrumental role – but not that
of upholding a cause, in which it differs from advocacy such as we see in
religious life. Thoughtfulness serves life by examining it.
Thoughtfulness serves life by creating more thoughtfulness.
Question: If philosophy is a way of
emancipating ourselves from stupidity (superstition, blind conformity, epistemic arrogance), then
– once we are emancipated – what do we do with thoughtfulness?
Answer: We never emancipate ourselves
from stupidity – there is no step beyond thoughtfulness."
