Granted Dialogue Partner

Famous quotes containing the words granted, dialogue and/or partner:

    We may well ask, What causes induce us to believe in the existence of body? but ‘tis vain to ask. Whether there be body or not? That is a point which we must take for granted in all our reasonings.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    When we understand that man is the only animal who must create meaning, who must open a wedge into neutral nature, we already understand the essence of love. Love is the problem of an animal who must find life, create a dialogue with nature in order to experience his own being.
    Ernest Becker (1924–1974)

    Plantin’ and readin’, plantin’ and readin’. Fill a man full of lead, stick ‘em in the ground, and then read words on ‘em. Why when ya killed a man, why try to read the Lord in as a partner on the job.
    Borden Chase [Frank Fowler] (1900–1971)
