Singular Forms

Famous quotes containing the words singular and/or forms:

“The singular passion
Abides its object and consumes desire
In the circling shadow of its appetite.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

“It would be easy ... to regard the whole of world 3 as timeless, as Plato suggested of his world of Forms or Ideas.... I propose a different view—one which, I have found, is surprisingly fruitful. I regard world 3 as being essentially the product of the human mind.... More precisely, I regard the world 3 of problems, theories, and critical arguments as one of the results of the evolution of human language, and as acting back on this evolution.”
—Karl Popper (1902–1994)
