Real Object

Famous quotes containing the words real and/or object:

    It should be quite clear, then, that there are no criteria to be laid down in general for distinguishing the real from the not real.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)

    Man you can define; but the true essence of any man, say, for instance, of Abraham Lincoln, remains the endlessly elusive and mysterious object of the biographer’s interest, of the historian’s comments, of popular legend, and of patriotic devotion.
    Josiah Royce (1855–1916)
