No Jargon of Plato, Aristotle

No Jargon of Plato, Aristotle


A person who is fundamentally honest doesn't need a code of ethics. The Ten Commandments and the Sermon on the Mount are all the ethical code anybody needs. - Harry S. Truman

for Bernard C., Katryn D., Brenda Youngerman



1.

No jargon of Plato, Aristotle

No Nietzsche

No Kant

Only simple truth I have in mind

Solid truth

Sermon on the Mount takes care of us

2.

No Freud, no Marx

I find the key

A golden key

There it is

Ten Commandments

Nuclear powers will shiver

They don’t know what they are doing

3.

What are you waiting for

How far away from truth you are

The solution , find at last

Think of the Ten Commandments

Beautiful earth is paralyzed

Because you don’t remember Sermon on the Mount

Because you don’t remember Ten Commandments

Come home out of dragon’s trap

Come home

4.

You say: we cannot waste time

I told you we have no other way

Be righteous, humble, pure in heart

Now

    If we are righteous, humble and pure in heart, we can come out of the Dragon's trap.

"The Wisest, the Brightest and the Meanest of Mankind"

Francis Bacon was not only one of the greatest writers, but also a great English statesman, philosopher  and politician. The great classical poet Alexander Pope regarded him as “the wisest, the brightest and the meanest of mankind”.  Bacon is the Father of  English essay.  His essays are famous for their wit and aphoristic style. Most of the lines from his essays have always been acclaimed as immortal quotes. For example, we may take the following lines that have become proverbs: Revenge is a kind of wild justice; which the more man's nature runs to, the more ought law to weed it out. Wives are young men's mistresses, companions for middle age, and old men's nurses. In charity there is no excess. Read not to contradict and confute; nor to believe and take for granted; nor to find talk and discourse; but to weigh and consider. Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested : that is, some books are to be read only in parts,

Edmund Spenser's Pictorial Power

Bloggers Community Spenser’s masterpiece Fairy Queen is an exraordinary allegory. Dryden aptly remarks about Spenser: “ No man was ever born with a greater genius or more knowledge to support it”.

Wordsworth aptly described him “Sweet Spenser, moving, through his clouded heaven / With the moon’s beauty and moon’s soft pace”. Spenser was aware of twelve virtues described by Aristotle that are indispensable to make an ideal person. By what means is this attainable? This incredible task was done by Spenser in his timeless nd comprehesive creation Fairy Queen. He decided to write twelve books devoted to these ideal virtues. What a gre
