Light Perception

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or perception:

    “One or the other is necessary: either a light disposition by nature or a disposition lightened by knowledge and art.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “The perception of the comic is a tie of sympathy with other men, a pledge of sanity, and a protection from those perverse tendencies and gloomy insanities in which fine intellects sometimes lose themselves. A rogue alive to the ludicrous is still convertible. If that sense is lost, his fellow-men can do little for him.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
