It is not enough to have a good mind. The main thing is to use it well. Everybody thinks himself so well supplied with common sense that even those most difficult to please. . . never desire more of it than they already have.

Extractions: (1596 to 1650) DESCARTES: AN OVERVIEW But in any case, what he came up with in his musings was the idea that the world "out there" was essentially a mechanical device that worked according to fixed rules of motion. Events occurred as the result of impacts among the various bodies that are in constant motion within this "machine." The machine itself is devoid of soul or vitality of its own. It simply responds to the "laws" of motion in a mathematical way. But that left the question of the human soul and willand the divine soul and will. Where do we fit in? Are we merely elements of this mechanical world? Is God merely an element of the mechanical world? To Descartes the answer was clearly a "no" to both questions. But in affirming our own vitalityand God'sDescartes was forced to separate the human soul (and God's) from that soul-less mechanical creation "out there." Fine. But how then were we connected to that worldexcept as removed observers? Where was our ancient sense of unity with all creation? Where in fact did that leave us in relation to Godand to each other? Those questions were never adequately answered. The human soul seemed to be left cut adrift by what was considered a very compelling philosophical statementone which swept powerfully through the philosophical circles of Europe in those days.

Extractions: French mathematician and philosopher. By applying mathematical principles to an examination of human knowledge in general, he laid the foundations for what we consider modern philosophy. He tried to begin from the fewest possible assumptions, rigorously building a system of thought from scratch. His contemplation of an initial state of absolute doubt led to his famous assertion, "I think, therefore I am." His invention of coordinate geometry ( Geometry, 1637) provided a powerful tool for the development of mathematics and physics. His philosophy is summarized in his Discourse on Method (1637) and Meditations Back to Timeline

http://www.classicallibrary.org/descartes/

Extractions: Reference Rene Descartes French rationalist philosopher and mathematician, "the father of modern philosophy," born at La Haye, near tours; trained at the Jesuit College at La Fleche, he remained a Roman Catholic throughout his life but soon became dissatisfied with scholasticism. While serving in the Bavarian army in 1619, he became convinced that it was his calling to refound human knowledge on a basis secure from skepticism. He expounded this idea in his most famous work, Meditationes de Prima Philosophia Meditations on First Philosophy , 1641). He began his inquiry by claiming that while one can doubt all the experiences of one's senses and the fruits of one's reason, one cannot doubt one's own existence as a thinking being, summarized in the Latin expression for which Descartes is famous: Cogito ergo sum (I think therefore I am). From this basis he argued that God must exist and cannot be a deceiver, therefore it is possible to discern truth through one's senses (a fundamental premise of rationalism). Descartes also argued that mind and body are distinct substances, believing that this dualism made possible human freedom and immortality. These ideas are seen in his Discours de la methode pour bien conduire sa raison, et chercher la verita dans les sciences

http://www.classicallibrary.org/descartes/principles/02.htm

Extractions: I. The grounds on which the existence of material things may be known with certainty. II. How we likewise know that the human body is closely connected with the mind. We ought also to conclude that a certain body is more closely united to our mind than any other, because we clearly observe that pain and other sensations affect us without our foreseeing them; and these, the mind is conscious, do not arise from itself alone, nor pertain to it, in so far as it is a thing which thinks, but only in so far as it is united to another thing extended and movable, which is called the human body. But this is not the place to treat in detail of this matter. III. That the perceptions of the senses do not teach us what is in reality in things, but what is beneficial of hurtful to the composite whole of mind and body. It will be sufficient to remark that the perceptions of the senses are merely to be referred to this intimate union of the human body and mind, and that they usually make us aware of what, in external objects, may be useful or adverse to this union, but do not present to us these objects as they are in themselves, unless occasionally and by accident. For, after this observation, we will without difficulty lay aside the prejudices of the senses, and will have recourse to our understanding alone on this question by reflecting carefully on the ideas implanted in it by nature.

Extractions: Rene Descartes was a respected philosopher, scientist and mathematician. He used new methods of investigating nature and he invented analytic geometry. He was the first philosopher to describe the physical universe in terms of matter and motion. He created three major works: Discourse on Method, Meditations on First Philosophy, and Principles of Philosophy.
