Ideal Form

Famous quotes containing the words ideal and/or form:

    Whoever has witnessed another’s ideal becomes his inexorable judge and as it were his evil conscience.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Every New Englander might easily raise all his own breadstuffs in this land of rye and Indian corn, and not depend on distant and fluctuating markets for them. Yet so far are we from simplicity and independence that, in Concord, fresh and sweet meal is rarely sold in the shops, and hominy and corn in a still coarser form are hardly used by any.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
