i don't understand philosophy

Philosophy is dead, the professor said. People cannot make thought and matter consistent, and people have to endow certain concepts with substance, because people cannot accept that certain abstract concepts only exist in the brain. Butterfly effect, useless to talk about. He just asked a few questions that no one could answer. People are reluctant to face pain, war. We need to think that life has meaning. Those short sentences at the beginning made me suddenly feel profound, and even I became one of those who were speechless.

Martin tried to get close to the professor with reverence, and he told Beth that I'd rather make a mistake and do something than make a mess than miss it completely. So he succeeded in attracting the professor's eyes and having a lively discussion with him. He was so excited that he couldn't hide the great joy in his heart.

Speaking of math, numbers. I understand what they say, no matter what kind of number you can find the truth, that is, there is so-called absolute truth in mathematics, odd number sequence, even number sequence, Fibonacci sequence, and then there are more complex formulas to express sequence. There's also the wall where he plays tennis and Martin's so-called variable calculations, at which point he's actually incorporating mathematics into physics. I can understand mathematics, I can understand physics, but I can never connect them to philosophy. I don't understand philosophy. But philosophy still exists, just as the butterfly effect is unpredictable but happens all the time.

If there were only philosophy in life, perhaps it would be like the man who had his limbs amputated, unable to bear the heavy burden of the first major problem in his life and had a nervous breakdown. Or maybe, he will be abandoned in obsession, and he can only look up at the sky alone to find the cloud that should belong to him. But life without philosophy would be boring, so Lorna would be attracted, taught, and Martin.

    The Spanish director went to Oxford to make a tribute to the British murders that went hand in hand. The so-called tributes include Hitchcock's motif preference camera grammar and heroine (Anna Marcy has played The Murderer), Christie's escaping method ABC. The so-called "secret", while complaining that Yingmei is obsessed with extreme characters, but at the same time found the hot Watling to play the only moral in the film... But the professor betrayed the ending for the murderous story and the film director.

    The perfect crime does not lie in finding the murderer, but in closing the case with a scapegoat.

The Oxford Murders quotes

  • Martin: I believe in the number pi.

    Arthur Seldom: I'm sorry, I didn't understand you. Uh, what was it you said you believed in?

    Martin: In the number pi, in the golden section, the Fibonacci series. The essence of nature is mathematical. There is a hidden meaning beneath reality. Things are organized following a model, a scheme, a logical series. Even the tiny snowflake includes a numerical basis in its structure, therefore, if we manage to discover the secret meaning of numbers, we will know the secret meaning of reality.

  • Arthur Seldom: Miss Scarlet is now an electron, okay? And you're looking at her through a keyhole or a particle accelerator - as you wish - and every time you look at her, Miss Scarlet will have changed her appearance or her position because the very fact that you observe her alters her atomic state. How about that?

    Martin: Don't try to confuse me with tricks.
