Growth Theory

Famous quotes containing the words growth and/or theory:

    “The windy springs and the blazing summers, one after another, had enriched and mellowed that flat tableland; all the human effort that had gone into it was coming back in long, sweeping lines of fertility. The changes seemed beautiful and harmonious to me; it was like watching the growth of a great man or of a great idea. I recognized every tree and sandbank and rugged draw. I found that I remembered the conformation of the land as one remembers the modelling of human faces.”
    —Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    “The theory of truth is a series of truisms.”
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)
