“The sole end of logic is to explain the principles and operations of our reasoning faculty, and the nature of our ideas; morals and criticism regard our tastes and sentiments; and politics consider men as united in society, and dependent on each other. In these four sciences of Logic, Morals, Criticism, and Politics, is comprehended almost everything, which it can any way import us to be acquainted with, or which can tend either to the improvement or ornament of the human mind.” – David Hume, Treatise of Human Nature (1738)
I have degrees in law and philosophy from the University of Melbourne and the University of Oxford. I love food, conversation, travel, philosophy, law and politics. This blog will feature thoughts on some mixture of these.
All views are my own.

Hey Jack, love your blog! Very thoughtful, very worthwhile.
Really sorry I forgot your birthday this year. No excuse. Hope it went well.
I can see from the blog that you’re growing into a significant lawyer with well developed views on a wide range of things, which is wonderful to see. Good on you mate.
Hope things are going well with Sammy. You’re dad tells me you’re moving in with her soon, which is a big step but a terrific one. Coincidentally Chris is moving in with his Sammy this month.
Sorry to hear you won’t be playing in the GF.
Cheers Jack, see you around.
