Famous quotes containing the words handicap and/or stones:

    I have the handicap of being born with a special language to which I alone have the key.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    ... if we take the universe of ‘fitting,’ countless coats ‘fit’ backs, and countless boots ‘fit’ feet, on which they are not practically fitted; countless stones ‘fit’ gaps in walls into which no one seeks to fit them actually. In the same way countless opinions ‘fit’ realities, and countless truths are valid, tho no thinker ever thinks them.
    William James (1842–1910)
