Famous quotes containing the words sat and/or instance:
“You have sat too long for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go!”
—Oliver Cromwell (1599–1658)
“By contrast with history, evolution is an unconscious process. Another, and perhaps a better way of putting it would be to say that evolution is a natural process, history a human one.... Insofar as we treat man as a part of nature—for instance in a biological survey of evolution—we are precisely not treating him as a historical being. As a historically developing being, he is set over against nature, both as a knower and as a doer.”
—Owen Barfield (b. 1898)
