Famous quotes containing the word means:
“It’s very good for an idea to be commonplace. The important thing is that a new idea should develop out of what is already there so that it soon becomes an old acquaintance. Old acquaintances aren’t by any means always welcome, but at least one can’t be mistaken as to who or what they are.”
—Penelope Fitzgerald (b. 1916)
“An idea is always a generalization, and generalization is a property of thinking. To generalize means to think.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“Hope is a bad thing. It means that you are not what you want to be. It means that part of you is dead, if not all of you. It means that you entertain illusions. It’s a sort of spiritual clap, I should say.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
