Famous quotes containing the words works and/or trilling:

    The mind, in short, works on the data it receives very much as a sculptor works on his block of stone. In a sense the statue stood there from eternity. But there were a thousand different ones beside it, and the sculptor alone is to thank for having extricated this one from the rest.
    William James (1842–1910)

    Being a Jew is like walking in the wind or swimming: you are touched at all points and conscious everywhere.
    —Lionel Trilling (1905–1975)
