Jacques Maritain And there is the headlight, shining far down the track, glinting off the steel rails that, like all parallel lines, will meet in infinity, which is after all where this train is going. Bruce Catton By confronting us with irreducible mysteries that stretch our daily vision to include infinity, nature opens an inviting and guiding path toward a spiritual life. Thomas More Debauchery is perhaps an act of despair in the face of infinity. Edmond De Goncourt Each work has its own space, which should neither be conceived as a sort of cage nor regarded as extending to infinity. Marino Marini Falsehood has an infinity of combinations, but truth has only one mode of being. Jean Jacques Rousseau God is the tangential point between zero and infinity. Alfred Jarry Height, width, and depth are the three phenomena which I must transfer into one plane to form the abstract surface of the picture, and thus to protect myself from the infinity of space. Max Beckmann Humanity is made up of an infinity of different individuals. Each of us travels for motives exclusively his own. Ella Maillart I am incapable of conceiving infinity, and yet I do not accept finity. Simone de Beauvoir I cannot help it - in spite of myself, infinity torments me. Alfred de Musset I think that the leaf of a tree, the meanest insect on which we trample, are in themselves arguments more conclusive than any which can be adduced that some vast intellect animates Infinity. Percy Bysshe Shelley If any philosopher had been asked for a definition of infinity, he might have produced some unintelligible rigmarole, but he would certainly not have been able to give a definition that had any meaning at all. Bertrand Russell If the infinity of the sea may call out thus, perhaps when a man is growing old, calls come to him, too, from another infinity still darker and more deeply mysterious; and the more he is wearied by life the dearer are those calls to him. Henryk Sienkiewicz In the case of composite colour, an infinity of systems must be obtained for maxima infinitely slight and with an infinity of interval values separating them - that is to say, the whole thickness of the sensitive layer is occupied in continuous manner by these maxima. Gabriel Lippmann It is good a philosopher should remind himself, now and then, that he is a particle pontificating on infinity. Ariel Durant It was exactly an assembly line. You could look into infinity down these rows of drawing tables. Gil Kane Mathematicians aren't satisfied because they know there are no solutions up to four million or four billion, they really want to know that there are no solutions up to infinity. Andrew Wiles Mathematics are the result of mysterious powers which no one understands, and which the unconscious recognition of beauty must play an important part. Out of an infinity of designs a mathematician chooses one pattern for beauty's sake and pulls it down to earth. Marston Morse Meditation is the dissolution of thoughts in Eternal awareness or Pure consciousness without objectification, knowing without thinking, merging finitude in infinity. Voltaire |
