Real Manifold

Famous quotes containing the words real and/or manifold:

    Imaginary pains are by far the most real we suffer, since we feel a constant need for them and invent them because there is no way of doing without them.
    E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)

    As one who knows many things, the humanist loves the world precisely because of its manifold nature and the opposing forces in it do not frighten him. Nothing is further from him than the desire to resolve such conflicts ... and this is precisely the mark of the humanist spirit: not to evaluate contrasts as hostility but to seek human unity, that superior unity, for all that appears irreconcilable.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)
