Famous quotes containing the word form:

    “Our ideas are the offspring of our senses; we are not more able to create the form of a being we have not seen, without retrospect to one we know, than we are able to create a new sense. He whose fancy has conceived an idea of the most beautiful form must have composed it from actual existence.”
    —Henry Fuseli (1741–1825)

    “People resent articulacy, as if articulacy were a form of vice.”
    —Frederic Raphael (b. 1931)

    “Reason transformed into prejudice is the worst form of prejudice, because reason is the only instrument for liberation from prejudice.”
    —Allan Bloom (1930–1992)
