Consists

Famous quotes containing the word consists:

    Propaganda is that branch of the art of lying which consists in nearly deceiving your friends without quite deceiving your enemies.
    F.M. Cornford (1874–1943)

    The truth, the absolute truth, is that the chief beauty for the theatre consists in fine bodily proportions.
    Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)

    The percept is the reality. It is not in propositional form. But the most immediate judgment concerning it is abstract. It is therefore essentially unlike the reality, although it must be accepted as true to that reality. Its truth consists in the fact that it is impossible to correct it, and in the fact that it only professes to consider one aspect of the percept.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
