It's no use trying to talk philosophy to our politicians. And I'm not a moral or political philosopher. I'm not interested in that.
Philosophers don't all believe that ethics is just based on intuition. That's just stupid! It's ignoramus!
Descartes says: I think, and I am every moment I am thinking, because I have this inner awareness of myself. And I always thought there was something fishy about that. I don't think there's any privileged self-knowledge. Most of our attention is to things outside us.
