"Without the breadth of life, the human body is a corpse; without thinking, the human mind is dead."~ Hannah Arendt, 1906–1975, an influential German-Jewish political theorist, & also a philosopher, although she refused that label on the grounds that philosophy is concerned with "man in the singular"; she often described herself more as a political theorist, because her work centered on the fact that "men, not Man, live on the earth & inhabit the world.";
