Light Error

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or error:

    What is love itself,
    Even though it be the lightest of light love,
    But dreams that hurry from beyond the world
    To make low laughter more than meat and drink,
    Though it but set us sighing?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Meanwhile, if the fear of falling into error sets up a mistrust of Science, which in the absence of such scruples gets on with the work itself, and actually cognizes something, it is hard to see why we should not turn round and mistrust this very mistrust.... What calls itself fear of error reveals itself rather as fear of the truth.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
