Belongs

Famous quotes containing the word belongs:

    “If she belongs to any besides the present, it is to the next world which artists want to see, when paganism will come again and we can give a divinity to every waterfall.”
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    Reason is man’s faculty for grasping the world by thought, in contradiction to intelligence, which is man’s ability to manipulate the world with the help of thought. Reason is man’s instrument for arriving at the truth, intelligence is man’s instrument for manipulating the world more successfully; the former is essentially human, the latter belongs to the animal part of man.
    Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

    Gee, boy, when you sing, I can close my ears
    And hear tom-toms just as plain.
    Listen to me, will you, what do I know
    About tom-toms? But I like the word, sort of,
    Don’t you? It belongs to us.
    Helene Johnson (b. 1907)
