Famous quotes containing the word meaning:
“These pictures of time;
They fade in the light of
Their meaning sublime.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Wisdom is not just knowing fundamental truths, if these are unconnected with the guidance of life or with a perspective on its meaning. If the deep truths physicists describe about the origin and functioning of the universe have little practical import and do not change our picture of the meaning of the universe and our place within it, then knowing them would not count as wisdom.”
—Robert Nozick (b. 1938)
“In love, we worry more about the meaning of silences than the meaning of words.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
