Tao Te Ching

“Dewey wrote the philosophy—as Whitman wrote the poetry—not of one English state, but of the continent... he rejects metaphysics as the echo and disguise of theology [and] what distinguishes him is the undisguised completeness with which he accepts the evolution theory... All progressive teachers acknowledge his leadership; and there is hardly a school in America that has not felt his influence.”

— Will Durant 1885 – 1981 CE
Philosophy apostle and popularizer of history's lessons
from The Story of Philosophy, 1926
