3 quotes from Pragmatism

"The whole function of philosophy is to convince us that our beliefs can come true, that we can live up to them in practice, and that it is worth our while to aim at doing so."
"Truth happens to an idea. It becomes true, is made true by events."
"Philosophy may be thought of as the very idea of letting reality dictate what we do and think in accordance with our experiences and the consequences of our actions."

Author : William James

William James (1842–1910) was a pioneering American philosopher and psychologist, often regarded as the "Father of American psychology." A prominent figure in the late nineteenth century, he was the first to offer a psychology course in the United States and played a critical role in developing pragmatism alongside Charles Sanders Peirce and John Dewey. James's philosophical contributions, including radical empiricism and functional psychology, have significantly shaped modern thought. Born into an intellectually vibrant family, he was connected to notable cultural figures such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry James. James authored several influential works, including "Principles of Psychology," "Essays in Radical Empiricism," and "The Varieties of Religious Experience," exploring diverse subjects like metaphysics, religion, and the nature of human experience. His eclectic education and wide-ranging interests cement his legacy as one of the most influential thinkers in American philosophy.
