Physical Objects

Famous quotes containing the words physical objects, physical and/or objects:

    Theory may be deliberate, as in a chapter on chemistry, or it may be second nature, as in the immemorial doctrine of ordinary enduring middle-sized physical objects.
    Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    Women generally should be taught that the rough life men must needs lead, in order to be healthy, useful and manly men, would preclude the possibility of a great degree of physical perfection, especially in color. It is not a bad reflection to know that in all probability the human animal has endowments enough without aspiring to be the beauty of all creation as well as the ruler.
    Caroline Nichols Churchill (1833–?)

    My objects dream and wear new costumes,
    compelled to, it seems, by all the words in my hands
    and the sea that bangs in my throat.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
