Changing

Famous quotes containing the word changing:

    The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
    Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)

    The aim of science is to apprehend this purely intelligible world as a thing in itself, an object which is what it is independently of all thinking, and thus antithetical to the sensible world.... The world of thought is the universal, the timeless and spaceless, the absolutely necessary, whereas the world of sense is the contingent, the changing and moving appearance which somehow indicates or symbolizes it.
    —R.G. (Robin George)

    Loves riddles are, that though thy heart depart,
    It stayes at home, and thou with losing savest it:
    But wee will have a way more liberall,
    Then changing hearts, to joyne them, so wee shall
    Be one, and one anothers All.
    John Donne (1572–1631)
