Thin Ideal Internalization

Famous quotes containing the words thin and/or ideal:

    Lodgepole
    coneseed waits for fire
    And then thin forests of silver-grey.
    in the void
    a pine cone falls
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    It is well worth the efforts of a lifetime to have attained knowledge which justifies an attack on the root of all evil—viz. the deadly atheism which asserts that because forms of evil have always existed in society, therefore they must always exist; and that the attainment of a high ideal is a hopeless chimera.
    Elizabeth Blackwell (1821–1910)
