Living Standard

Famous quotes containing the words living and/or standard:

    And then he heard some old forgotten talk
    At a short distance like a hundred miles
    Filling the air with its secrecy,
    And was afraid of all the living air....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Error is a supposition that pleasure and pain, that intelligence, substance, life, are existent in matter. Error is neither Mind nor one of Mind’s faculties. Error is the contradiction of Truth. Error is a belief without understanding. Error is unreal because untrue. It is that which seemeth to be and is not. If error were true, its truth would be error, and we should have a self-evident absurdity—namely, erroneous truth. Thus we should continue to lose the standard of Truth.
    Mary Baker Eddy (1821–1910)
