1. Philosophy / D. Nature of Philosophy / 1. Philosophy

19583	Philosophy only begins when it studies itself [Novalis]
	Full Idea: All philosophy begins where philosophizing philosophises itself.
	From: Novalis (Logological Fragments I [1798], 79)
	A reaction: The modern trend for doing metaphilosophy strikes me as wholly admirable, though I suspect that the enemies of philosophy (who are legion) see it as a decadence.
