Left Ideal

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or ideal:

    I felt my cheek
    Alter, to see the shadow pass away,
    Whose grasp had left the giant world so weak
    That every pigmy kicked it as it lay;
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    The unique eludes us; yet we remain faithful to the ideal of it; and in spite of sense and of our merely abstract thinking, it becomes for us the most real thing in the actual world, although for us it is the elusive goal of an infinite quest.
    Josiah Royce (1855–1916)
