Essentially

Famous quotes containing the word essentially:

    Chance does not speak essentially through words nor can it be seen in their convolution. It is the eruption of language, its sudden appearance.... It’s not a night atwinkle with stars, an illuminated sleep, nor a drowsy vigil. It is the very edge of consciousness.
    Michel Foucault (1926–1984)

    The passion of love is essentially selfish, while motherhood widens the circle of our feelings.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
