Famous quotes containing the word abstract:
“The more abstract the truth you wish to teach, the more you need to seduce the senses to it.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Truth is that concordance of an abstract statement with the ideal limit towards which endless investigation would tend to bring scientific belief, which concordance the abstract statement may possess by virtue of the confession of its inaccuracy and one-sidedness, and this confession is an essential ingredient of truth.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
