Famous quotes containing the words meaning and/or mother:
“Wisdom is not just knowing fundamental truths, if these are unconnected with the guidance of life or with a perspective on its meaning. If the deep truths physicists describe about the origin and functioning of the universe have little practical import and do not change our picture of the meaning of the universe and our place within it, then knowing them would not count as wisdom.”
—Robert Nozick (b. 1938)
“A man loves his sweetheart the most, his wife the best, but his mother the longest.”
—Irish Proverb.
