Wisdom, Simplicity, Effort
“Hey, Brian. Thanks for the email... $20 (what a bargain). I found out about your site from Philosophers Notes podcast and the interview you did with the New Man. Your commentary and the notes are inspiring. I've got three kids and all the stuff that goes along with that. The notes are both a mental timeout and a gut check to help me stay on a path of authenticity. I'm not where you are but I'll keep striving. Thanks again!”
“Reading Brian's Philosopher's Notes is like getting pearls of wisdom from books that will change your life, then having one of those delicious discussions about it with someone who not only understands, but has his own pearls of wisdom to add too. This is exactly what we were looking for in our house. We always talked about needing summaries of books, and here they are, only better.”
