argument Kant gives as his "Metaphysical Exposition of Space" (B37-40) that space cannot be either and actual entity (Newtonian concept) or any independent relation among real things (Leibnizian concepti be on). In other words‚ is he successful in arguing that space must be (at least) a form of intuition? Do any of his arguments further show that space must be ONLY a form of intuition and not ALSO something Newtonian or Leibnizian? In his Metaphysical Exposition of Space‚ Kant attempts to show that

English Exposition Whale hunting must be stopped! Imagine your swimming in the ocean‚ minding your own business. Then‚ suddenly‚ something sharp hits you. It enters your body and explodes. The pain is killing but it does not kill you‚ not yet. Again a sharp object hits you and explodes. Again and again you are hit. Your enormous body‚ however‚ does not give up that easily. It will take more than a half an hour to get unconscious. Maybe‚ if you are lucky‚ you will drown. Perhaps you will be dragged

Andrew Carnegie‚ The Selfish Philanthropist Andrew Carnegie‚ born on November 25‚ 1835‚ was a Scottish philanthropist who was one of the richest men in America in the 1900 ’s.

He started working in a cotton mill making $1.20 a week only to upgrade to $2.20 working as a messenger boy. He eventually taught himself telegraphy

"Is Self-Care Selfish" When I first saw the assignment with the title‚ I questioned myself what has to do with self-care being selfish. Selfish in self-care meant that "having their own way and doing things they enjoy." I strongly believe that self-care is not selfish. Maintaining our need for self-care is claiming our right to become a human being. Taking ourselves properly are as important as caring for others. Clinically‚ "self-care" can be found in our daily life‚ such as eating‚ exercising

Beowulf is no doubt a heroic character. He has beaten villains time and time again to save his people‚ and he deserves great praise for that. However‚ I believe Beowulf is a selfish warrior‚ and was driven to do justice purely for the fame and glory that he would gain from it. The definition of selfishness is; seeking or concentrating on one’s own advantage‚ pleasure‚ or well-being without regard for others. Selfishness is not a bad thing however‚ and because of his selfishness he was able to achieve

Romeo and Juliet‚ written by William Shakespeare‚ has a character that is very oddly characterized. Friar Lawrence‚ proves to be trustworthy‚ yet selfish‚ and very cowardly.

Selfish vs. Selfless I think people are more selfish than selfless because of the way our society has changed effectively‚ in terms of behavior. They’re definitely selfless as well‚ but not as often because of the fact that they sometimes get influenced to do bad by others around them. If it wasn’t for bad influences‚ I’m sure most people would be very selfless‚ with good matters‚ behavior‚ and actions. I don’t think people are always selfish though; I think that at
