Proposition True

Famous quotes containing the words proposition and/or true:

“The perfect God in his revelations of himself has never got to the length of one such proposition as you, his prophets, state.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The True is the whole. But the whole is nothing other than the essence consummating itself through its development. Of the Absolute it must be said that it is essentially a result, that only in the end is it what it truly is; and that precisely in this consists its nature, viz. to be actual, subject, the spontaneous becoming of itself.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
