Excerpt from What Is Philosophy? A Public Lecture Delivered at the University of Liverpool

It could be argued that the question thus raised is not one of first-rate importance. Definitions of the scope of a science or branch of knowledge, it might be said, are so largely arbitrary, and matters of the use of words only that there is always a possibility of difference of opinion about the use of them, and it would be a mistake to waste too much time on a fruitless attempt to resolve these differences.

It would, indeed, be a waste of time if we always insisted on postponing the discussion of any particular problem that interested us until we had come to a universal agreement as to the correct title of the branch of knowledge to which it should be assigned. There are certain particular kinds of problem which we generally and naturally call philosophical, and there are others, more or less closely allied to these, about which we might be in more doubt. Some would restrict the limits of Philosophy so as to exclude all the doubtful cases; and, in doing so, they find themselves obliged to exclude a great many cases also which ordinarily have been always included within its limits. On the other hand, the view here adopted is that it is more convenient to define the study so as to include all the subjects usually included, within the subject matter of Philosophy, even if that involves opening the door also to more doubtful claimants.

But, either way, we must remember that the problems and subjects remain just the same, we can consider and discuss them, if they interest us, just as freely, whether we call them Philosophy or not.
