Aphorism #50 Never lose Self-respect,

or be too familiar with oneself. Let yourown right feeling be the true standard of your rectitude, and owe more to the strictness of your own self-judgment than to all external sanctions. Leave off anything unseemly more from regard for your own self-respect than from fear of external authority. Pay regard to that and there is no need of Seneca's imaginary tutor.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtOfWorldlyWisdom?d=yIl2AUoC8zA (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtOfWorldlyWisdom?a=XRBHrgbnPdU:UMTGw61CzFM:yIl2A UoC8zA) http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtOfWorldlyWisdom?d=qj6IDK7rITs (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtOfWorldlyWisdom?a=XRBHrgbnPdU:UMTGw61CzFM:qj6ID K7rITs)

Yes. Seneca, Spinoza, Rousseau, Comte all past tense of unnecessary philosophical babbling. Seneca started that ball rolling. Spinoza tried to bring God into physics. Nietzsche made fun of Spinoza: The man with the lantern, looking for God everywhere.
