I strive to express myself clearly in this text. Philosophy in the 19^th and 20^th centuries, in particular, is often difficult to read and relate to. (This difficulty falls on both sides of the ‘analytic-continental divide.’)

With that said, philosophy will always be difficult for common sense because philosophy tries to go against what we take for granted. Thus, some difficulty is unavoidable.

Philosophy should strive to be as clear as it can without giving up on its basic insights.
