“Brian, The Fountainhead Note actually made tears well up and gave me goose bumps. Outstanding!! ... As an analytical lover of the arts I always notice composition and structure. From a great sales presentation to a Pearl Jam song on the radio, a piece of abstract art in the MOMA or a story on 60 Minutes; I appreciate the elements and how they are assembled. Typically a well done piece introduces ideas, builds emotion, bridges, and concludes. My "inner judge" knows immediately when this recipe has been achieved. The result is always the same. Big Emotion. That is what happened with this note. Its what you used and how you put it together. Like a Philosophical DJ. You heard it here 1st...”
“In this information age, knowledge is as plentiful as fast food, wisdom as precious as a home cooked meal. Knowledge is mindlessly poured into troughs; wisdom preciously served one ladle at a time with delight. It’s knowledge we have, but wisdom we seek. Knowledge informs; wisdom transforms.
As for PhilosophersNotes, it’s Wisdom that Meister Brian Johnson so generously serves here. The sort of wisdom that can only be revealed by a true modern day Philosopher gloriously in the throws of discovery, in service to the world. My advice to you: step on! Take this ride of a lifetime with Brian and benefit from this master’s passionate search for truth and wisdom.”
"Even when walking in the company of two other men, I am bound to be able to learn from them. The good points of the one I copy; the bad points of the other I correct in myself." ~ Confucius
