"How many a dispute could have been deflated into a single
paragraph if the disputants had dared to define their terms." — Aristotle
Language is one of the essential qualities that make us "Human." And it is through this amazing ability that we are able to express abstract concepts to explore and describe the very nature of existence. But today, there are many words in our lexicon that we regularly employ, yet have forgotten their origins and true meanings. In this section, I will begin to explore some of these terms and attempt to bring to light the reasons it is so problematic that we know longer know this.
- Philosophy — the love of wisdom
- Creativity — ex nihilo nihil fit; from nothing, nothing comes
- Culture I — cultivation of the mind
- Culture II — Nature vs. Nurture
