According to
The Ethical Philosophy Selector, these are the philosophers I think most like:
1. Aquinas (100%)
2. Spinoza (92%)
3. John Stuart Mill (90%)
4. St. Augustine (90%)
5. Jean-Paul Sartre (84%)
6. Nel Noddings (83%)
7. Epicureans (79%)
8. Kant (77%)
9. Jeremy Bentham (67%)
10. Plato (64%)
The only time I've heard of Spinoza is on an episode of
Jeeves and Wooster where Bertie goes to a bookstore to pick up a book of Spinoza for Jeeves and meets an ex-fiance of his. I guess I should read more from those top three at least. Oh wait - I read John Stuart Mill in college and thought it tedious. Although - I may be confusing him with someone else. I just can't get into philosophical writs. It's not easy reading.
