Presents

Famous quotes containing the word presents:

    Realism, whether it be socialist or not, falls short of reality. It shrinks it, attenuates it, falsifies it; it does not take into account our basic truths and our fundamental obsessions: love, death, astonishment. It presents man in a reduced and estranged perspective. Truth is in our dreams, in the imagination.
    Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)

    There are three hundred and sixty-four days when you might get un-birthday presents ... and only one for birthday presents, you know.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    To him who looks upon the world rationally, the world in its turn presents a rational aspect. The relation is mutual.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
