Real Aggregate

Famous quotes containing the words real and/or aggregate:

“Do you think that the things people make fools of themselves about are any less real and true than the things they behave sensibly about?”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

“We think of religion as the symbolic expression of our highest moral ideals; we think of magic as a crude aggregate of superstitions. Religious belief seems to become mere superstitious credulity if we admit any relationship with magic. On the other hand our anthropological and ethnographical material makes it extremely difficult to separate the two fields.”
—Ernst Cassirer (1874–1945)
