Extreme Isolation

Famous quotes containing the words extreme and/or isolation:

    The most passionate, consistent, extreme and implacable enemy of the Enlightenment and ... all forms of rationalism ... was Johann Georg Hamann. His influence, direct and indirect, upon the romantic revolt against universalism and scientific method ... was considerable and perhaps crucial.
    Isaiah Berlin (b. 1909)

    The one happiness is to shut one’s door upon a little room, with a table before one, and to create; to create life in that isolation from life.
