Truths

Famous quotes containing the word truths:

    All great truths begin as blasphemies.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    Most of the change we think we see in life
    Is due to truths being in and out of favor.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Wisdom is not just knowing fundamental truths, if these are unconnected with the guidance of life or with a perspective on its meaning. If the deep truths physicists describe about the origin and functioning of the universe have little practical import and do not change our picture of the meaning of the universe and our place within it, then knowing them would not count as wisdom.
    Robert Nozick (b. 1938)
