Legitimacy over façades. I enjoyed this lecture a-lot. Its quite amazing to me, how I can attend a college lecture in my own bed after a full day of welding. I enjoy discussing with my peers on their perspectives and having a contextual reference to perpetuate from. Not just random articles on web browsers and over-popularized opinions . There are alot of (dainty promises) im noticing as we all carry out our lives. I love hearing the directions we all came from and where we want to manifest the livelihood . Positive outlooks and prevention of evil.

Wow! Wow! What a Brilliant brother, a true Christian in every sense of the word, humility, sincerity and Love for all humanity! I admire and love this beloved brother. We must remember to pray for his good health and long life. We learn so much from his vast knowledge of Philosophy and World affairs! He is, no doubt, the foremost Intellectual in the entire United States of America! There is no one to" put their feet in his shoes", so to speak

"Try again, fail again, fail better, that's the stories of our lives." 💯 Oh, I how I love Mr. West. I'm still learning how to die sir, but I'm committed. 👏🏿🙌🏿

Wow. I haven't always agreed w/ everything professor West has ever said but for the most part I have always had a strong sense of respect & appreciation for his inspirational wisdom, intellect, and knowledge. Wish I knew 1/2 of what he has forgotten. I am old enough to remember how inspired I was as a young Canadian white boy In the 1960's by Martin Luther King's great words & this man's great understanding and enlightened view takes me back. This for me qualifies him as one of the greatest truth seekers and freedom fighters of the 20th & 21st centuries. Such a blessing to hear his powerful message about piety in such a short sighted world like ours. Listen up all you young rebels & activists because this instruction on how to live is profound & very rare in our time. You may actually learn something and come away w/ a priceless life changing gift. Thank-you professor for teaching us how to die. I'm still learning. As Eric Clapton once said "Tell The Truth"

Deleted my comment before because it made me think of the “you should rather sing in the shower instead” reference. Anything I comment isn’t really me, it’s the wisdom of this lecture echoing inside me, or even closer to the truth, the wisdom of his mother.

First before a man we are a feeling yet to be self actualise. We want to feel too in the way human's do. Jealous of normal people, and what they have dismiss as low value. Feelings. Men's feelings mater. As a poor self educated philosopher we hate philosopher's. Our philosophy is very basic, and like a rasor we are shalow hoping one day to be sharp. Philosophy ends man.
