Famous quotes containing the words particle and/or content:

    Each particle is a microcosm, and faithfully renders the likeness of the world.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    It is still not enough for language to have clarity and content ... it must also have a goal and an imperative. Otherwise from language we descend to chatter, from chatter to babble and from babble to confusion.
    René Daumal (1908–1944)
