I’ve only read one title by Alain de Botton but his philosophy has already made a major impact on my approach to life. I look forward to reading more of his works in the very near future.

His act was funny, brutally honest, truthful and sincere. Hicks was one of those guys that thought for himself and came to some astonishing conclusions. If I could wrap up his ideals simply I would say he was extolling love over hate, the truth of one consciousness and how we could easily become a better society if we only just thought about it.
