Famous quotes containing the word wilhelm:

    “Whatever happens, every individual is a child of his time; so philosophy too is its own time apprehended in thoughts. It is just as absurd to fancy that a philosophy can transcend its contemporary world as it is to fancy that an individual can overleap his own age, jump over Rhodes.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
