William Brown wrote: "...philosophy is not the love
of wisdom but really the wisdom of loving (otherwise it would be
sophophily)..."
Actually, I am not sure this is strictly true. I thought the Latin "philosophia" meant the love of knowledge, and not the love of wisdom (which is not the same thing) not the wisdom of love (not sure it works that way).
Friday afternoon pedantry anyone?
