External

Famous quotes containing the word external:

    Given that external reality is a fiction, the writer’s role is almost superfluous. He does not need to invent the fiction because it is already there.
    —J.G. (James Graham)

    Truth in philosophy means that concept and external reality correspond.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    All violent feelings have the same effect. They produce in us a falseness in all our impressions of external things, which I would generally characterize as the “pathetic fallacy.”
