True Human

Famous quotes containing the words true human, true and/or human:

    True human goodness, in all its purity and freedom, can come to the fore only when its recipient has no power.
    Milan Kundera (b. 1929)

    Since art is the expression of beauty and beauty can be understood only in the form of the material elements of the true idea it contains, art has become almost uniquely feminine. Beauty is woman, and also art is woman.
    Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)

    That the world is not the embodiment of an eternal rationality can be conclusively proved by the fact that the piece of the world that we know—I mean our human reason—is not so very rational. And if it is not eternally and completely wise and rational, then the rest of the world will not be either; here the conclusion a minori ad majus, a parte ad totum applies, and does so with decisive force.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
