Famous quotes containing the words operation, autumn and/or clouds:
“An absolute can only be given in an intuition, while all the rest has to do with analysis. We call intuition here the sympathy by which one is transported into the interior of an object in order to coincide with what there is unique and consequently inexpressible in it. Analysis, on the contrary, is the operation which reduces the object to elements already known.”
—Henri Bergson (18591941)
“It was autumn and falling stars
Covered the shrivelled forms
Crouched in the moonlight.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
“By the road to the contagious hospital
under the surge of the blue
mottled clouds driven from the
northwesta cold wind.”
—William Carlos Williams (18831963)
