Famous quotes containing the word symbol:
“A symbol is indeed the only possible expression of some invisible essence, a transparent lamp about a spiritual flame; while allegory is one of many possible representations of an embodied thing, or familiar principle, and belongs to fancy and not to imagination: the one is a revelation, the other an amusement.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“Mysticism is the mistake of an accidental and individual symbol for an universal one.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“No one is without Christianity, if we agree on what we mean by that word. It is every individuals individual code of behavior by means of which he makes himself a better human being than his nature wants to be, if he followed his nature only. Whatever its symbolcross or crescent or whateverthat symbol is mans reminder of his duty inside the human race.”
—William Faulkner (18971962)
