Short Handed

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or handed:

    “Science is the language of the temporal world; love is that of the spiritual world. Man, indeed, describes more than he explains; while the angelic spirit sees and understands. Science saddens man; love enraptures the angel; science is still seeking, love has found. Man judges of nature in relation to itself; the angelic spirit judges of it in relation to heaven. In short to the spirits everything speaks.”
    —HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    “Thinking about the universe has now been handed over to specialists. The rest of us merely read about it.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
