Famous quotes containing the words points of, points and/or interest:

    “Mankind is not a circle with a single center but an ellipse with two focal points of which facts are one and ideas the other.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    “Wi’ joy unfeigned brothers and sisters meet,
    An’ each for other’s weelfare kindly spiers:
    The social hours, swift-winged, unnoticed fleet;
    Each tells the uncos that he sees or hears;
    The parents, partial, eye their hopeful years;
    Anticipation forward points the view:”
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    “Any effort in philosophy to make the obscure obvious is likely to be unappealing, for the penalty of failure is confusion while the reward of success is banality. An answer, once found, is dull; and the only remaining interest lies in a further effort to render equally dull what is still obscure enough to be intriguing.”
    —Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)
