Famous quotes containing the words james and/or strong:

    Metaphysics means nothing but an unusually obstinate effort to think clearly.
    —William James (1842–1910)

    “The unities, sir,’ he said, “are a completeness—a kind of universal dovetailedness with regard to place and time—a sort of general oneness, if I may be allowed to use so strong an expression. I take those to be the dramatic unities, so far as I have been enabled to bestow attention upon them, and I have read much upon the subject, and thought much.”
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
