“Long before Einstein told us that matter is energy, Machiavelli and Hobbes and other modern political philosophers defined man as a lump of matter whose most politically relevant attribute is a form of energy called “self-interestedness.” This was not a portrait of man “warts and all.” It was all wart.”
—George F. Will (b. 1941)
“The pleasures of the imagination are as it were only drawings and models which are played with by poor people who cannot afford the real thing.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
