Finite Flat Resolution

Famous quotes containing the words finite, flat and/or resolution:

    Are not all finite beings better pleased with motions relative than absolute?

    For the Eye altering alters all;
    The Senses roll themselves in fear
    And the flat Earth becomes a Ball.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    I had crossed de line of which I had so long been dreaming. I was free; but dere was no one to welcome me to de land of freedom. I was a stranger in a strange land, and my home after all was down in de old cabin quarter, wid de ole folks, and my brudders and sisters. But to dis solemn resolution I came; I was free, and dey should be free also; I would make a home for dem in de North, and de Lord helping me, I would bring dem all dere.
    Harriet Tubman (c. 1820–1913)
