Famous quotes containing the words actual, geography, current and/or science:

    “In the actual world—the painful kingdom of time and place—dwell care, and canker, and fear. With thought, with the ideal, is immortal hilarity, the rose of joy.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “At present cats have more purchasing power and influence than the poor of this planet. Accidents of geography and colonial history should no longer determine who gets the fish.”
    —Derek Wall (b. 1965)

    “The current of our thoughts made as sudden bends as the river, which was continually opening new prospects to the east or south, but we are aware that rivers flow most rapidly and shallowest at these points.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The poet uses the results of science and philosophy, and generalizes their widest deductions.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
