Accidental Quotations
Mysticism is the mistake of an accidental and individual symbol for an universal one. Ralph Waldo Emerson I like mathematics because it is not human and has nothing particular to do with this planet or with the whole accidental universe - because, like Spinoza's God, it won't love us in return. Bertrand Russell Accidents, try to change them it's impossible. The accidental reveals man. Pablo Picasso The lion's share of what I hear right now are people who, intentional or accidental, have avoided all jazz prior to 1960. And all the musicians who were successful in the '60s spent their entire lives, prior to 1960, listening to all the musicians these people avoid. Branford Marsalis Accidents, try to change them - it's impossible. The accidental reveals man. J. B. Priestley |
