Famous quotes containing the words basic and/or extension:
“The basic essential of a great actor is that he loves himself in acting.”
—Charlie Chaplin (1889–1977)
“We know then the existence and nature of the finite, because we also are finite and have extension. We know the existence of the infinite and are ignorant of its nature, because it has extension like us, but not limits like us. But we know neither the existence nor the nature of God, because he has neither extension nor limits.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
