“ All men by nature desire knowledge.”
Aristotle
I have studied the philosophy of Aristotle at Oxford, and I am very intrigued by him. I have read in excess of twenty books about him and his teachings. In fact, they're all with me...and soaked...because it is raining.
While I am a man of thought and not of speech, the same cannot be said for the rest of the travelers. Some speak of nothing but gossip and meaningless stories from the past. They do not seem to speak and inquire with a need to gain knowledge, something I pride myself in.
This made me think of the above quote and forces me to remind myself that deep down all of these people are like me in a way...they have a need to gain knowledge and enjoy learning. Every day, I hope to teach them a little more about myself and the philosophy of my life from my soaked books. I hope it works out.
