Spinning Object

Famous quotes containing the words spinning and/or object:

    “Reason is an exception in me, too,” said Zarathustra: “Chaos and necessity and spinning stars—that is also the rule in the wisest world.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Is not prayer also a study of truth,—a sally of the soul into the unfound infinite? No man ever prayed heartily, without learning something. But when a faithful thinker, resolute to detach every object from personal relations, and see it in the light of thought, shall, at the same time, kindle science with the fire of the holiest affections, then will God go forth anew into creation.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
