I'm sorry.  I have never been even remotely tempted to pick up Schopenhauer 
and I can't even tell you why.  Hegel, yes.  Heidegger absolutely.  Derrida and 
Levinas in spades.  The pre-sots I will never forgive for not leaving us more 
than scraps.  Plato I worship and Aristotle I will tolerate.  I will 
periodically pick up "Being and Time" because it is kind of like poetry -- I 
can't 
ever say analytically what he means, but it is joyous to read.  I'll trudge 
through a minimal amount of Descartes and enjoy some pretty Pascal.  But I've 
never 
thought even once about Schopenhauer.  Should I?

Couldn't tell you.  All I know is that it works again.  That's good enough
for me!  Although, now that you mention it I'm curious as to why
'connection' was put in single quotations and "stuck" was put in double.
Since you mentioned Descartes, in my philosophical meanderings I have picked
up the Cambridge Companion to Schopenhauer, which has a few essays that look
particularly interesting for anyone interested in Schopey.

Schopenhauer and Knowledge (David Hamlyn)
Schopenhauer, Kant, and the Methods of Philosophy (Paul Guyer)
The Influences of Eastern Thought on Schopenhauer's Doctrine of the
Thing-in-Itself (Moira Nicholls)
Schopenhauer on Death (Dale Jacquette)
Schopenhauer's Pessimism (Christopher Janaway)
Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, and Dionysus (Martha C. Nussbaum)
Schopenhauer, Will, and the Unconscious (Sebastian Gardner)
Schopenhauer and Wittgenstein:  Representation as Language and Will (Hans
Johann Glock)

I've left out five other essays in the compilation that, frankly, seem
rather boring - like "Schopenhauer on the Self".
