Daily Hume quote: "Good and ill are universally intermingled and confounded; happiness and misery, wisdom and folly, virtue and vice. Nothing is pure and entirely of a piece."

A photo of my office. In the background, out of the window, you can see Arthurβs Seat and the Salisbury Crags, while in the foreground thereβs my desk with a large computer monitor and a stack of books with one called βPhilosophical Methodologyβ on top.
My βphilosophical methodologyβ is to stare out of the window and hope desperately that something occurs to me
