Famous quotes containing the words record and/or attempt:
“That is what the highest criticism really is, the record of one’s own soul. It is more fascinating than history, as it is concerned simply with oneself. It is more delightful than philosophy, as its subject is concrete and not abstract, real and not vague. It is the only civilised form of autobiography.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“The new vulcanism is really a daring attempt to connect the present, incomprehensible world to a past, unknown one.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
