VALUES/PRINCIPLES

The word "Philosophy" is derived from the Ancient Greek - philosophía (compounded from phílos: friend, or lover and sophía: wisdom). To quote from WikiPedia, "Philosophy is the discipline concerned with the questions of what is the right way to live (ethics), what sorts of things ultimately exist and what are their essential natures (metaphysics), what is to count as genuine knowledge (epistemology), and what are the correct principles of reasoning (logic).

“Every time you stand up for an ideal, you send forth a tiny ripple of hope.” —Robert Kennedy

“The legacy of heroes is the memory of a great name and the inheritance of a great example.” —Benjamin Disraeli
