Famous quotes containing the words distribution of, distribution, belief and/or god:

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There is the illusion of time, which is very deep; who has disposed of it? Mor come to the conviction that what seems the succession of thought is only the distribution of wholes into causal series.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I have never grown out of the infantile belief that the universe was made for me to suck.
    Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)

    I made god upon god
    step from the cold rock,
    I made the gods less than men
    for I was a man and they my work....
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
