Nowadays, we have a soft determinism which abhors harsh words, and, repudiating fatality, necessity, and even predetermination, says that its real name is freedom; for freedom is only necessity understood, and bondage to the highest is identical with true freedom.”
—William James (1842–1910)

“He is the greatest artist who has embodied, in the sum of his works, the greatest number of the greatest ideas.”
