Finite Community

Famous quotes containing the words finite and/or community:

    For it is only the finite that has wrought and suffered; the infinite lies stretched in smiling repose.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Justice begins with the recognition of the necessity of sharing. The oldest law is that which regulates it, and this is still the most important law today and, as such, has remained the basic concern of all movements which have at heart the community of human activities and of human existence in general.
    Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
