Who this is

“Consciousness is never an empty container. It is always consciousness of something — and describing exactly how things appear to us turned out to be a whole new continent of philosophy.”
— The Great Philosophers, Ch. 186

The big idea, in the book's words:

“Before you build theories about the world, go back and describe, with absolute care, how the world actually shows up in your experience — because that is where every theory secretly begins.”
— The Great Philosophers, Ch. 186
