Famous quotes containing the words forms and/or meaning:
“I am not so foolish as to declaim against forms. Forms are as essential as bodies; but to exalt particular forms, to adhere to one form a moment after it is outgrown, is unreasonable, and it is alien to the spirit of Christ.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A moment in time but time was made through that moment: for without the meaning there is no time, and that moment of time gave the meaning.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
