Famous quotes containing the words artificial and/or stupidity:
“Description is revelation. It is not
The thing described, nor false facsimile.
It is an artificial thing that exists,
In its own seeming, plainly visible,
Yet not too closely the double of our lives,
Intenser than any actual life could be....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“We never really know what stupidity is until we have experimented on ourselves.”
