            Much of what was said today I did not captivate for some reason. I was only focusing on what I had to say. Unfortunately even though I had many thoughts on the paragraph they were completely different from other people’s thoughts. When Fyodor Dostoyevsky talked about his consciousness he said it was a disease since he cannot choose one path. This is due to the fact that he can see both sides with clarity.

           

            Another interesting idea that we discussed was his thoughts on the sublime and beautiful. He interprets the world as a place that is not sublime and beautiful and wants to destroy it. The reason for this is he cannot fit in society because of the amount of intellect he holds and although he is still proud of that intellect he is still trying to fit in but cant.
