Full Abstraction

Famous quotes containing the words full and/or abstraction:

“Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight, and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears; and sometime voices,
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

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