not talk about how they think but about their behavior, lifestyle. You mean they were all like a men with normal thinking? If yes, we all are great philosophers! all these people live in a world of their own: in a world where no one confused them to think,to write, its philosophy; than in the real world where all most no one understand them.

People differ. Each create or join a (social) group according to his/her interests. So this is a usual thing and is not a striking feature only of philosophers named above. I also think, all people are talented (each in his/her way) and extraordinary... And are philosophers to a certain degree... The question is how to live a life realizing all the capabilities you have.

sometimes these possibilities do not help you to live but helps to destruction. People like to take advantage of what the others have or can, especially if is something unique.

I just meant Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Voltaire, Denis Diderot, Sir Thomas More, Goethe, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Lev Tolstoy, Karl Marx, Bertrand Russell, Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, Michel Foucault realized at least the capabilities of their (beautiful) mind.

Talking about their behavior, lifestyle they all were not only the great thinkers but public and political figures or teachers at educational establishments as well. Their activity was conditioned by their features of character that are considered to be normal from the point of veiw of Psychology. Of course, we may say many of them had whims but we all have our own peculiarities. We also may say they needed solitude to think their thoughts over. Still it was and is still not an obligatory condition.

I also want mark these (and other) philosophers influenced human outlook greatly. And positivly, I should say. For Philosophy is not only thinking for the thinking's sake but looking for the way out when Mankind is lost, looking for the dealing of a certain fundamental problem.

Thinking is good...

but you don't think

but you don't think

I think, I do. But it's your right consider me not. In the end it can't do any harm.

how can you write the words and connect them so good if you can not thinking? He just thinks differently, has a different opinion which does not mean that he don't thinks.
