I get the sense from reading this that John Locke would be someone I would enjoy hanging out with. His pragmatic approach is refreshing in the world of philosophy, and his argumentative style beats you over the head with its sensibility again and again. I find it fascinating to see how much our institutions built on the thoughts espoused here. Locke comes across as an incredible orator as well, though I haven't heard the urban legends of that aspect of our "founding father".
