Original Light Source

Famous quotes containing the words original, light and/or source:

    That Calvinistic sense of Innate Depravity and Original Sin, from whose visitations, in some shape or another, no deeply thinking mind is always and wholly free. For, in certain moods, no man can weigh this world, without throwing in something, somehow like Original Sin, to strike the uneven balance.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    It is obvious that we can no more explain a passion to a person who has never experienced it than we can explain light to the blind.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    It is thus tolerance that is the source of peace, and intolerance that is the source of disorder and squabbling.
    Pierre Bayle (1647–1706)
