Full Abstraction

Famous quotes containing the words full and/or abstraction:

“There, full in notes, to ravish all
My Earth, I wonder what to call
My dullness; when
I heare thee, prettie Creature, bring
Thy better odes of Praise, and Sing,
To puzzle men:
Poore pious Elfe!
I am instructed by thy harmonie,
To sing the Time’s uncertaintie,
Safe in my Selfe.”
—George Daniel (1616–1657)

“By “object” is meant some element in the complex whole that is defined in abstraction from the whole of which it is a distinction.”
