Suspicion

Famous quotes containing the word suspicion:

“What ails it, intrinsically, is a dearth of intellectual audacity and of aesthetic passion. Running through it, and characterizing the work of almost every man and woman producing it, there is an unescapable suggestion of the old Puritan suspicion of the fine arts as such—of the doctrine that they offer fit asylum for good citizens only when some ulterior and superior purpose is carried into them.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)

“My own suspicion is that the Universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we can suppose.”
—J.B.S. (John Burdon Sanderson)

“You highest men whom I have ever seen! This is my suspicion about you and my secret laughter: I guess that you would call my superman—a devil!”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
