Whether you’re hoping to gain a little bit of insight into your life or just trying to make yourself appear well-read in front of your acquaintances, philosophy is generally a good place to start. But for many reasons, a lot of us simply don’t have the time to read through Buddhist texts or the works of Socrates. With PhilosoQuote, you can at least have some snippets of wisdom from a few of history’s greatest thinkers with you on the fly.
PhilosoQuote has quotes from 11 remarkable thinkers, including sayings from Aristotle, Sun Tzu, and Albert Einstein. You can view quotes from an individual thinker which will come at random every time you press the new quote button, or you can select the random tab and read the philosophers at random. You can also save your favorite quotes to your iPhone and read them again later in the bookmarks tab.
The selection of quotes is large and I ended up saving a surprisingly long list of quotes. However, I did wish that the app came with more quotes from more philosophers. There are plenty of great philosophers whose words are just as inspiring as those of the people quoted in the app but who were not included, like John Stuart Mill, Confucius, and Gandhi. Also, the app fails to recognize when duplicates of bookmarked quotes are created, so when you accidentally save a quote you’ve already saved, it appears twice on the list of bookmarks. But despite these issues, this app is a nice addition for any iPhone or iPod Touch (especially because it’s free).
