The Tao of Kanye West

Plato. Descartes. Locke. Marx. Nietzsche. Sartre. Yeezy. These are the names that come to mind when you mention the greatest philosophers of all-time. And for too long Kanye West had been depriving us of his deep thoughts about life, the universe and everything with an extended absence from social media. But he has returned, and in times of trouble, we can all once again look to Kanye West for moral guidance.

Observe how seemlessly Kanye’s tweets blend in with the greatest minds the human race has known.

“The unexamined life is not worth living” – Socrates

“Cogito, ergo sum” – René Descartes

Powerful stuff, isn’t it?

“There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance” – Socrates

“Religion is the sign of the oppressed … it is the opium of the people” – Karl Marx

“Morality is not the doctrine of how we may make ourselves happy, but of how we may make ourselves worthy of happiness” – Immanuel Kant

I’ve got chills, honest to god chills.

“That man is wisest who, like Socrates, realizes that his wisdom is worthless” – Plato

“The only thing I know is that I know nothing” – Socrates

“Everything that exists is born for no reason, carries on living through weakness, and dies by accident” – Jean-Paul Sartre

“The deepest form of despair is to choose to be another than himself.” – Soren Kierkegaard
