Sitting in a doctor's office waiting to hear about some ailment I can understand why many people don't want to sit with their own thoughts... Even if that is one of the most important time to do that.
Do you think Thus Spoke Zarathustra is a good book to read? I was thinking about reading it but have seen a lot of conflicting opinions on it. Should I read another book by him instead?

You got lucky if you had a waiting room to sit in with your own thoughts. Most have a TV blaring these days

Glad you're enjoying them
These videos are golden.
Glad you enjoy them
Clearly stated, nice tone and pace, well explained. A true jem in the marketplace that is YT.

Thanks for these videos Gregory, i'm dipping my toes in to philosophy and these mini lectures helped a lot with the metaphorical nature of the text!
You're welcome!
OMG! This is so good for now. I need to read this again!!
Glad you enjoyed it
