Famous quotes containing the words operation, magic and/or carpet:
“An absolute can only be given in an intuition, while all the rest has to do with analysis. We call intuition here the sympathy by which one is transported into the interior of an object in order to coincide with what there is unique and consequently inexpressible in it. Analysis, on the contrary, is the operation which reduces the object to elements already known.”
—Henri Bergson (1859–1941)
“The magic of first love is our ignorance that it can ever end.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
“There are lots of things that you can brush under the carpet about yourself until you’re faced with somebody whose needs won’t be put off.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
