Famous quotes containing the words ideas and and/or ideas:

    “A religion, that is, a true religion, must consist of ideas and facts both; not of ideas alone without facts, for then it would be mere Philosophy;Mnor of facts alone without ideas, of which those facts are symbols, or out of which they arise, or upon which they are grounded: for then it would be mere History.”
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    “My ideas are a curse.
    They spring from a radical discontent
    with the awful order of things.
    I play clown. I play carpenter. I play nurse.
    I play witch.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
