🛩HAPPY RELEASE DAY✈ . What to say about these wonderful, hard-hitting books other than just reading them was an absolute pleasure? Only that this is a match to the death between who has the prettiest cover. Is there anything here you are looking forward to? . My first book out if this stack was Trust simply because I decided this year belongs to the Italians and I loved the cover. This was one of those books you read to make life richer, and the end doesn't matter, only being engrossed in it for the journey. Thanks to @europaeditionsuk for this copy. The Life of the Mind was the second book here by @europaeditionsuk and if it wasn't clear before, this publisher refuses to drop the ball: I went from the cover to the last page in 24 hours. It is a book dealing with some triggering subjects for some people, so use your discretion. The Prince of the Skies is an historical fiction work set in the XX century following Antoine de Saint-Exupery, the man who between many other accomplishments, was the author of The Little Prince. This was one of my most anticipated reads this month and I enjoyed learning so much about this man's incredible life. Thanks @panmacmillan and congrats to whoever came up with the design for this proof because it's beautiful. @wattpad meets body positivity and neurodivergence rep in this YA book. I'm a hundred pages away from finishing Big Boned as I write this but I don't think there is anything in those pages that can change what I already think about it which is that I'm in love with it. Thank you to @penguinukbooks not only for gifting me this copy but for being brave enough to publish a range of YA books about fat boys and girls being happy, talented and worthy of all kinds of love and good things. These were the kind of books I needed growing up and I'm so glad that teens today are being told that their weight is nothing to be ashamed and being fat is many things including beautiful but it's not all we are . #trust #demenıcostarnone #jhumpalahiri #thelifeofthemind #christinesmallwood #theprinceoftheskies #antonioiturbe #bigboned #jowatson #bookreleaseday #gifted #octoberreleases #lucsbooks #currentlyreading #bookstacklove #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CVBT4zmA0TX/?utm_medium=tumblr

‘The only general symptom of insanity is the loss of the sensus communis and the logical stubbornness in insisting on its own (sensus privatus).’ #Kant via #HannahArendt in #TheLifeOfTheMind

...to look ...look at anything ...look at anyone ...such as for example: ‘looking at a table does not enable us to decide whether the table is #good or #bad; the #vision does not inform us, nor any other of our #senses. Only the #spirit, which deals not with the tables in #reality, but with table impressions (the #real ...the real table), can inform us.’ adaptation of #HannahArendt #TheLifeOfTheMind

‘What is really in the power of the human being, in the sense of being that which depends entirely on being, is the quality of his conduct.’ #Plotinus

‘O que está realmente em poder do ser humano, no sentido de ser aquilo que depende inteiramente do ser, é a qualidade de sua conduta.’ #Plotino

Freedom: the "I-can", not the "I-want", is the criterion ...Liberdade: o "eu-posso", não o "eu-quero", é o critério.

As well as in the arts, the human deeds that truly shine are those that shine by their intrinsic merits. ... Assim como nas artes, os feitos humanos que verdadeiramente brilham são os que brilham por seus méritos intriseco.

Maquiavel via Hannah Arendt The life of the mind... A Vida do Espírito
