Cognitive Activity

Famous quotes containing the words cognitive and/or activity:

    Ideas are so much flat psychological surface unless some mirrored matter gives them cognitive lustre. This is why as a pragmatist I have so carefully posited ‘reality’ ab initio, and why throughout my whole discussion, I remain an epistemologist realist.
    William James (1842–1910)

    For art to exist, for any sort of aesthetic activity or perception to exist, a certain physiological precondition is indispensable: rapture.
