Choosing Life

Summary: Fascinating!
Review: I must admit that one of my favorite lectures of all-time is _Choosing Life_, as it expertly delves into both the theoretical and practical implications of the choice to live within the Objectivist ethics. Perhaps the most memorable aspect of the lecture is Kelley's connection between serious depression, meaning in life, and the choice between life and death. But more suggestive philosophically is his distinction between achievement and experience. Both, he argues, are necessary for a meaningful life. Overall, this lecture is definitely worth a careful listen!
