'The secret of happiness is: Find something more important than you are and dedicate your life to it.' - In memory of philosopher Dan Dennett ted.com/talks/dan_denn…
Dan Dennett was a great philosopher, skilled with words, images, thought experiments & intuition pumps. But unlike many clever philosophers (to borrow from PB Medawar) he had something important to be clever ABOUT, namely science. Much more yet, he was a dear friend. So very sad.
