Famous quotes containing the words john and/or james:

    Where the Muse herself
    All Time fulfils,
    Who cuts with his scythe
    All things but hers;
    All but the blithe
    Hexameters.
    —Oliver St. John Gogarty (1878–1957)

    Essential truth, the truth of the intellectualists, the truth with no one thinking it, is like the coat that fits tho no one has ever tried it on, like the music that no ear has listened to. It is less real, not more real, than the verified article; and to attribute a superior degree of glory to it seems little more than a piece of perverse abstraction-worship.
    —William James (1842–1910)
