Michael J. Sandel - side of the question

“It is better to be a human being dissatisfied than a pig satisfied; better to be Socrates dissatisfied than a fool satisfied. And if the fool, or the pig, are of a different opinion, it is because they only know their own side of the question.” ~Michael J. Sandel, Justice: What’s the Right Thing to Do?

Administrator/Blogger Note

It was a privilege to meet Michael J Sandel, an American Political Philosopher of Harvard University and author of the book Justice, in person during his Public Discourse of What Should We Do About Truth held at Carriageworks, Eveleigh last March 24, 2018 through Centre for Ideas/University of New South Wales. I watched him as a sole panelist during the ABC QandA hosted by Tony Jones discussing an overall theme of "Democracy in Action" held at ABC Ultimo last Sunday, March 25, 2018 as a personal guest of Rado Gatchalian of DU30 Correspondents Team Member and Founder of April30forDU30 Australia Global Movement on both events.
