Thought for the Day

Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1869) was a German philosopher. Since most of you have today off, I thought I'd give you something to really contemplate, courtesy of Herr Schopenhauer:

"'The world is my idea' is a truth valid for every
living creature, though only man can consciously
contemplate it. In doing so he attains philosophical
wisdom. No truth is more absolutely certain than
that all that exists for knowledge, and, therefore,
this whole world, is only in relation to subject,
perception of a perceiver-- in a word, idea.
The world is idea"
