We don’t need a philosophy, that is an old German Romantic concept. Disaster follows automatically when a philosophy is adopted, that is history. We should learn how to philosophize.

One has a philosophy whether one wants to or not or knows it or not. Choosing not to adopt one is also a philosophy -- albeit a foolish one in my opinion.
