SYMBOLIC adj. Pertaining to gezegde

SYMBOLIC, adj. Pertaining to symbols and the use and interpretation of symbols.

They say 'tis conscience feels compunction; I hold that that's the stomach's function, For of the sinner I have noted That when he's sinned he's somewhat bloated, Or ill some other ghastly fashion Within that bowel of compassion. True, I believe the only sinner Is he that eats a shabby dinner. You know how Adam with good reason, For eating apples out of season, Was "cursed." But that is all symbolic: The truth is, Adam had the colic.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

We are the symbolic species. There's really nothing that distinguishes us more from other creatures than our very flexible, creative use of different kinds of symbols and it's also what underlies our enormous cognitive power, because we're not limited to just learning about the world through direct experience with the world. We can learn about it through what somebody else tells us, through pictures, through maps, through videos, through a whole host of different kinds of symbolic representations. So what we know is just hugely expanded by the fact that we can use different kinds of symbols, so this is clearly a very important aspect of the development of any human child.

Judy DeLoache

The affairs of man are conducted by our own, man-made rules and according to man-made theories. Man's achievements rest upon the use of symbols.... we must consider ourselves as a symbolic, semantic class of life, and those who rule the symbols, rule us.

Alfred Korzybski (1879-1950)

All human history attests That happiness for man, - the hungry sinner! Since Eve ate apples, much depends on dinner

Lord Byron (1788-1824)

It's a symbolic act on her part recognizing that the person who represents the Queen as the commander-in-chief of the Canadian Forces doesn't want to be in a position where anyone might say she has divided loyalties. I don't believe for a second she would have had them, but symbols are important.

John Aimers

When we say ‘our rulers’, we mean those who are engaged in the manipulation of symbols. We must consider ourselves a symbolic, semantic class of life, and cannot cease from being so… those who control the symbols rule us.

Bankers, priests, lawyers,… politicians, [and news media] constitute one class [of our rulers] and work together. They do not produce any values but manipulate the values produced by others, and often pass signs for no value at all. Scientists and teachers also comprise a ruling class. They produce the main values mankind has, but, at present, they do not realize this. They are, in the main, ruled by the cunning methods of the first class.

Alfred Korzybski (1879-1950)

Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.

Bible

We are sick with fascination for the useful tools of names and numbers, of symbols, signs, conceptions and ideas. Meditation is therefore the art of suspending verbal and symbolic thinking for a time, somewhat as a courteous audience will stop talking when a concert is about to begin.

Alan Watts (1915-1973)

This is a great honor for Adam and for our program. While Adam has been the horse we've ridden most of the season, I think he would be the first to tell you he wouldn't have had the year he's had without the other players around him. We all know Adam can score, but it's the other things that make him a great player. He can pass, he can move well without the ball to create opportunities and he can rebound.

Mark Few

National anthems are symbols of a culture and symbols of what the majority of the country believes in.

Sergio Bendixen

Homo sapiens is the species that invents symbols in which to invest passion and authority, then forgets that symbols are inventions.

Joyce Carol Oates (1938-)

Authority

I am a sinner, I am a worthless sinner, I am meek, but I am Yours, Lord.

Guru Nanak (1469-1539)

Although the most common symbols found on a dashboard conform to international symbols, the layout might be very different .... ignoring an unfamiliar warning light -- even if the car seems to be performing normally -- could cost you thousands.

Lloyd East

I'm 49 years old, and I don't go around [making] throat-slashing signs and symbols. I don't use that type of demeanor, and I never have. This is way blown out of proportion. I don't know where we get all these gang symbols and allegations. This is 'Gesture-gate' or something.

Bill Callahan

The first and greatest punishment of the sinner is the conscience of sin.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca
