Famous quotes containing the word notion:

    The trouble with lying and deceiving is that their efficiency depends entirely upon a clear notion of the truth that the liar and deceiver wishes to hide. In this sense, truth, even if it does not prevail in public, possesses an ineradicable primacy over all falsehoods.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    Many things, for aught I know, may exist, whereof neither I nor any other man hath or can have any idea or notion whatsoever.
    George Berkeley (1685–1753)

    No delusion is greater than the notion that method and industry can make up for lack of mother-wit, either in science or in practical life.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)
