Finite Simple

Famous quotes containing the words finite and/or simple:

    God is a being of transcendent and unlimited perfections: his nature therefore is incomprehensible to finite spirits.
    George Berkeley (1685–1753)

    Even the simple act that we call “going to visit a person of our acquaintance” is in part an intellectual act. We fill the physical appearance of the person we see with all the notions we have about him, and in the totality of our impressions about him, these notions play the most important role.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
