Famous quotes containing the word universal:

    “Hail, Source of Being! Universal Soul
    Of heaven and earth! Essential Presence, hail!
    To thee I bend the knee; to thee my thoughts
    Continual climb, who with a master-hand
    Hast the great whole into perfection
    touched.”
    —James Thomson (1700–1748)

    “We early arrive at the great discovery that there is one mind common to all individual men: that what is individual is less than what is universal ... that error, vice and disease have their seat in the superficial or individual nature.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
