Profile Picture of Coe Douglas

Coe Douglas

Writer. Bibliophile. Psychonaut.

Absolutely essential reading. Hadot brings the Classics—from Plato and his fellow Platonists to the Stoics and the Epicureans—to life and in the process elucidates the raison d'être of philosophy as spiritual exercises that teach us how to truly live and fully be more human.

Epicurus who beautifully wrote that, "Of all the means which wisdom acquires to ensure happiness throughout the whole of life, by far the most important is friendship."

Taco Lu. The best veggie tacos in Jacksonville. Try the Tempeh, brisket style. Mmm-mmmm-mmm...

The most moving recording I've yet heard of Beethoven's 5th. So perfect and famous, the 5th is almost a cliché, but it's gorgeous nonetheless and essential listening.

Beautifully simple spiritual biography of Plotinus, the great philosopher and mystic.

Brilliant album. Johnny Hartman has perhaps the only voice smooth enough to hang with Trane.
