I'm sure this is going to sound stupid to you, but I want to know just how many people actually believe that dinosaurs existed.
P.S. Please make your answer simple, I don't need to be told how stupid this question is.

Everyone has dreamed. It seems extraworldly yet normal. Dreaming is the only real connection to an alternative reality that everyone has experienced. Is it a real place somewhere external to the body or is it mearly an interesting form of Playstation entertainment in our brain.

Everyone has one or two of those at the back of their mind. "When I'll get enough money, I will quit my job and move to Bali."
What are yours?

What could you have done better?

For me, I learned patience, forgiveness, love.

I would have educated myself more, and traveled more.

Hey, I still plan to.

There's always been all this rhetoric that John Lennon was a revolutionary thinker, and even a prophet according to some people. But I beg to differ, his ideas on peace and love were nothing new or earth-shattering.

I'd rather reserve my respect and admiration for someone who actually actively DID something to change people's lives instead of just talking about it and writing songs. John Lennon shares absolutely no comparison to people who actually sacrificed of themselves to better the world (i.e. Ghandi, Jesus Christ, Mother Theresa).

What do you guys think?

I'm starting to study philosophy and I'm looking for some good books to learn more about pre-Socratic philosophers, especially Thales, Anaximander and Anaximenes. If the books are easier to find (ISBN number and are currently in print) is much appreaciated. I already have a copy of Diogenes Laertius' Lives, but I'm looking for additional sources. Thanks in advance.
