Famous quotes containing the word meanings:

    “Words differently arranged have a different meaning, and meanings differently arranged have different effects.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “Man cannot bury his meanings so deep in his book, but time and like-minded men will find them. Plato had a secret doctrine, had he? What secret can he conceal from the eyes of Bacon? of Montaigne? of Kant? Therefore, Aristotle said of his works, “They are published and not published.””
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
