Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or object:
“If there is anybody in this land who thoroughly believes that the meek shall inherit the earth they have not often let their presence be known.”
—W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)
“An absolute can only be given in an intuition, while all the rest has to do with analysis. We call intuition here the sympathy by which one is transported into the interior of an object in order to coincide with what there is unique and consequently inexpressible in it. Analysis, on the contrary, is the operation which reduces the object to elements already known.”
—Henri Bergson (1859–1941)
