After Virtue: A Study in Moral Theory, Third Edition
Alasdair MacIntyre
Spent the last few weeks reading "After Virtue" by Alasdair MacIntyre for the first time... It came out in 1981, but it feels like it could have come out today—which is unsettling. Though I suppose 40 years is just a blink on the timescale of history he is considering.

Why We Run: A Natural History
Bernd Heinrich
"Lacking this self-delusionary logic, we would be less able to rationalize, and so be unable to succumb to such mad, senseless, crazy things as trying to see how fast one can run 62.2 miles without stopping." —from Bernd Heinrich, Why We Run: A Natural History (2001) #ultrachat
