I may not have managed to do as much philosophy today as I'd hoped, but I have discovered the difference between restrictive and non-restrictive relative clauses: the former helps to identify the referent while the latter does not.

What an exciting life I lead.

This is not philosophy.
You should read Nietzsche.

If I want to subject myself to the art of a syphilitic German lunatic, I'll go with the Romantic brilliance of the music of Robert Schumann, rather than the crazed scribblings of Nietzsche...

That's because you are a weak post-christian nihilist
and not a Solar Nietzschean Superhuman.

You are quite correct. I am now going to go off and re-read Dune in an attempt to rectify the situation.
