Famous quotes containing the words sense and/or combination:

    We have need to be earth-born as well as heaven-born, gegeneis, as was said of the Titans of old, or in a better sense than they.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    So of the three methods: reason, sense, or a knowing combination of both, the last seems the least like a winner, the second problematic; only the first has some slim chance of succeeding through sheer perversity, which is possibly the only way to succeed at all.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
