Famous quotes containing the word forms:

    We can imagine a society in which no one could survive as a social being because it does not correspond to biologically determined perceptions and human social needs. For historical reasons, existing societies might have such properties, leading to various forms of pathology.
    Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)

    I regret the unhappiness of princes who are slaves to forms and fettered by caution.
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)

    A painter told me that nobody could draw a tree without in some sort becoming a tree; or draw a child by studying the outlines of its forms merely,—but by watching for a time his motions and plays, the painter enters into his nature and can then draw him at will in every attitude.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
