A little - it aligns with my interests, but I've read more deeply among the Greek and Roman philosophers.

How would they apply differently to the choices you in your day-to-day life now?

Hmm. I must confess that, at the time when the Romans' and Greeks' thoughts were largely studied by their individual works rather than grouped together into schools of thought, I... shall we say, had a very limited interest in philosophical matters.

Thus I have not studied them as intensely. I did, however, always find the idea of Cyrenaicism amusingly close to a demon's perspective on life.

I can see how that would appeal.

I'll re-read some of their work. Perhaps we can discuss it in another week or two?

I would be glad to. Needless to say I shall have to do some reviewing myself. [He spends most nights reading anyway, so might as well make this this week's reading list.]
