QUOTE:
"I know things like philosophy are supposed to provide an answer to this question, but ask yourself if it actually does this. "
-I never quite got this argument:
I can't find a practical application for philosophy. Therefore there must be none.
As the great philosopher of mind Daniel Dennett once said, "I take this to be a reductio, and you should, too."
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
