Calls

Famous quotes containing the word calls:

    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Our soul is cast into a body, where it finds number, time, dimension. Thereupon it reasons, and calls this nature necessity, and can believe nothing else.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    I hate journalists. There is nothing in them but tittering jeering emptiness. They have all made what Dante calls the Great Refusal.... The shallowest people on the ridge of the earth.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
