Quotes
“Every great advance in science has issued from a new audacity of imagination.”
Chapter XI “Art expresses, it does not state; it is concerned with existences in their perceived qualities, not with conceptions symbolized in terms.”
Art as Experience, p. 139 “While they denounce as subversive anarchy signs of independent thought, of thinking for themselves on the part of others lest such thought disturb the conditions by which they profit, they think quite literally for themselves, that is of themselves.”
Part 1 “It is a familiar and significant saying that a problem well-put is half-solved.”
Logic: Theory of Inquiry “But the individual butterfly or earthquake remains just the unique existence which it is. We forget in explaining its occurrence that it is only the occurrence that is explained, not the thing itself.”
