Direct Realist

Famous quotes containing the words direct and/or realist:

“Of course it is of no use to direct our steps to the woods, if they do not carry us thither. I am alarmed when it happens that I have walked a mile into the woods bodily, without getting there in spirit.... What business have I in the woods, if I am thinking of something out of the woods?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“In Israel, in order to be a realist you must believe in miracles.”
