Famous quotes containing the words james and/or gleason:
“That reality is ‘independent’ means that there is something in every experience that escapes our arbitrary control. If it be a sensible experience it coerces our attention; if a sequence, we cannot invert it; if we compare two terms we can come to only one result. There is a push, an urgency, within our very experience, against which we are on the whole powerless, and which drives us in a direction that is the destiny of our belief.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“Conductor: What do you know about music?
Eddie: Nothing I only wrote it, that’s all.
Conductor: Then you have the best of me. You don’t have to listen to it.”
—James Gleason (1886–1959)
