/lit/ - Literature

>My son is taking a course in philosophy, and last night we were looking at something by Spinoza – and there was the most childish reasoning! There were all these Attributes, and Substances, all this meaningless chewing around, and we started to laugh. Now, how could we do that? Here’s this great Dutch philosopher, and we’re laughing at him. It’s because there was no excuse for it! In that same period there was Newton, there was Harvey studying the circulation of blood, there were people with methods of analysis by which progress was being made! You can take every one of Spinoza’s propositions, and take the contrary propositions, and look at the world – and you can’t tell which is right.
- Richard Feynman, Nobel prize winning physicist

How will /lit/ ever recover after this thread?

OP here. Literally laughing at all of your abysmal maths skills. Literature is truly the eternal cope for brainlets.
>why would I waste my time like that
You realize the same exact thing could be said about literature? You only chose to like literature because you weren't smart enough to get maths.
