Famous quotes containing the word reflection:
“There are three principal means of acquiring knowledge available to us: observation of nature, reflection, and experimentation. Observation collects facts; reflection combines them; experimentation verifies the result of that combination. Our observation of nature must be diligent, our reflection profound, and our experiments exact. We rarely see these three means combined; and for this reason, creative geniuses are not common.”
—Denis Diderot (17131784)
“In the last analysis, love is only the reflection of a mans own worthiness from other men.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
