Famous quotes containing the word philosophers:
“Two half philosophers will probably never a whole metaphysician make.”
—Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)
“The profoundest thoughts of the philosophers have something tricklike about them. A lot disappears in order for something to suddenly appear in the palm of the hand.”
—Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
“Athletes have studied how to leap and how to survive the leap some of the time and return to the ground. They don’t always do it well. But they are our philosophers of actual moments and the body and soul in them, and of our manoeuvres in our emergencies and longings.”
—Harold Brodkey (b. 1930)
