The fox and the Hedgehog... and you are?

there are, among other theories, the theory
of the Hedgehog and the Fox… that of how
we think about things… in the Hedgehog,
we have a person who knows one big thing…
within Philosophy we have, as a Hedgehog,
Spinoza… who knows one big thing, that the
world is undivided with god… god is everything…

and as a Philosopher, the one who knows a great many things
would be Aristotle… the fox…

and in thinking about my own thinking, writings, I am clearly
a fox… so, what are you? a hedgehog or a fox?

I’m sensing improvement here. Part of your text looks like a paragraph and the sentences aren’t as chopped up as they usually are. You also kept it very concise. Kudos.

As for specificity versus sensitivity, I really feel that Aristotle struck a home run on both of those (with room for improvement, of course). I have not studied Spinoza very much at all.

Nescio sir/madam. To a lion (Newton +1) I don’t think it makes a difference whether you’re a hedgehog or a fox, both are snacks, although I think a fox will last longer than a hedgehog.

I respect all 3 though.
