Be a Philosopher.

Inspired by the Greek thinker Diogenes, I am seen here wearing an old barrel previously used for storing olives or wine or something similar. Apart from walking through the streets of Athens wearing nothing much (except in some stories a wooden barrel), Diogenes is also famous for asking the Delphic Oracle for advice and being told to deface the currency. He was one of the original ‘cynics’ who liked to challenge authority and promote independent thinking. Clearly he’s not the only philosopher worth considering in the search for world peace; there are loads more to find out about before you decide to be one of your own…!


"Every day Lard likes to share his special brand of wisdom and inspiration.
If you like what Lard has to say you can help bring about World Peace by passing it on to your friends and family"

Let us know what you think.
