Famous quotes containing the words james and/or robinson:
“That reality is ‘independent’ means that there is something in every experience that escapes our arbitrary control. If it be a sensible experience it coerces our attention; if a sequence, we cannot invert it; if we compare two terms we can come to only one result. There is a push, an urgency, within our very experience, against which we are on the whole powerless, and which drives us in a direction that is the destiny of our belief.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“And at his heart there may have gnawed
Sick memories of a dead faith foiled and flawed”
—Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
