    In this paper, I will argue that the paradoxes Oliver Sacks mentions in his essay "The Mind's Eye" have only one purpose, that is, to show us the complex working of the brain and its ability to overcome disability. The paradoxes are made an integral part of the essay because each paradox mentioned shows us how the human brain can adapt and find creative and ingenious ways to cope with physical losses and disorders. In his essay, Sacks seemingly breaks the norm. Yet, it seems like those who were victims of neurological disorder seem better off blind. Sacks essay is mainly based on subjective experiences, rather than objective experiences.…

    In Landau’s book, The Fundamentals of Ethics, Chapter seven focuses on psychological egoism. The backbone of this theory is that all human actions are driven by human’s egotistical desires. Landau defends this theory by stating, “Psychological egoism is a theory about human motivation: it tells us that our only motivation is to make ourselves better off.” (Landau 106) This means in order for someone to adopt this theory they must believe that even trivial events that seem very altruistic are in fact somehow spawned from an egotistical mindset. Landau explains, “…altruism—the direct desire to benefit others for their own sake without any ulterior motive—does not exist.”…

    In his essay “Thought,” Louis H. Sullivan greatly stresses the importance of thinking critically and creatively, and presents the argument that one must think not in words but rather in images, rhythm, and other wordless forms of communication. Sullivan resorts heavily on comparisons and analogies and metaphors to convey the impractical usage of words. “But in passing I may say that real thinking is better done without words than with them, and creative thinking must be done without words,” Sullivan argues, and he goes on to explain the intellectual heft and rigor of thinking creatively and highlights its rewards. Sullivan also asserts that one must think in the present and the present alone, for his reasoning is that “you cannot in the past,…

    In J.L. Austin’s Other Minds, Austin states that when one questions the speaker to verify the truthfulness of their statements, one asks the speaker to expand on their credentials and facts. Some also question the reality perceived by the speaker and the certitude of the speaker in his perceptions. Yet Austin insists that certain metaphysical questions that interrogates into the reality — whether the speaker is in the proper state of mind, whether the object is in its natural state, whether the speaker’s perceptions have been distorted by external influences — lose their meanings when raised in ambiguous contexts, and language can be used as an instrument to clarify the confusion between different notions and resolve the doubt on the veracity…
