What philosophy do you follow? (v1.03)
created with QuizFarm.com

I have never read a book written by a philosopher herself, and understand all the above schools of philosophy only in their crudest definitions. Couldn't remember why during my days as a troubled youth (haha) I just didn't think of consulting a book... I remember racking my brain for years just to come to a semi-conclusion about the meaning of life, that wasn't errr, very unique at all. Oh well.

ETA: Er, wait, I *did* have read Lao Zi, Zhuang Zi and of course good ol' Confucius' works (no Taiwanese could've grown up avoiding classes about them). Um.
