Josef Rashty, CPA, Ph.D.  (Candidate)

​"Philosophy being nothing else but the study of wisdom and truth,
It may with reason be expected that those who have spent most time and pains in it
should enjoy a clearness and evidence of knowledge,
and be less disturbed with doubts and difficulties than other men,"  George Berkeley.

"If there is no immortality of the soul,
​there can be no virtue and therefore everything is permissible."
"To keep order in the world, if God did not exist,
​he would have to be invented," 
The Brothers Karamazov, Fyodor Dostoevsky
