Sentido da Vida


"O Sentido da vida não é algo de oculto, que podemos encontrar ou descobrir, na própria vida, mas algo que nós próprios podemos dar à nossa vida. Podemos conferir um sentido à nossa vida, através das nosss acções, do nosso comportamento, da nossa atitude perante a vida, perante os outros e perante o mundo. Assim, a questão do sentido da vida transforma-se numa questão ética - quais as tarefas que me devo impor para dar um sentido à minha vida? Ou, - «Que devo fazer?»."

Karl Popper, in 'Auf der Suche nach einer besseren Welt'

Using them as a proxy for skills and ideas, their map reveals intellectual hotspots and tracks how empires rise and crumble. The information comes from Freebase, a Google-owned database of well-known people and places, and other catalogues of notable individuals. The visualization was created by Maximilian Schich (University of Texas at Dallas) and Mauro Martino (IBM).
