Life would be stunted gezegde

 Life would be stunted and narrow if we could feel no significance in the world around us beyond that which can be weighed and measured with the tools of the physicist or described by the metrical symbols of the mathematician.
  Sir Arthur Eddington

 They should become symbols of unity in the modern world, just as the original seven wonders were symbols of the ancient world.

 The mathematician, carried along on his flood of symbols, dealing apparently with purely formal truths, may still reach results of endless importance for our description of the physical universe.

 Only a male intellect clouded by the sexual drive could call the stunted, narrow-shouldered, broad-hipped and short-legged sex the fair sex.
  Arthur Schopenhauer

 We were trying to characterize the lens through which people see the world. A community is a collection of symbols and images. And we wanted our symbols and images to be better than the other guy's.

 As a poet and as a mathematician, he would reason well; as a mere mathematician, he could not have reasoned at all, and thus would have been at the mercy of the Prefect
  Edgar Allan Poe

 It is a good lesson /though it may often be a hard one /for a man who has dreamed of literary fame, and of making for himself a rank among the world's dignitaries by such means, to step aside out of the narrow circle in which his claims are recognized, and to find how utterly devoid of all significance, beyond that circle, is all that he achieves, and all he aims at.
  Nathaniel Hawthorne

 Great books are weighed and measured by their style and matter and not by the trimmings and shadings of their grammer
  Mark Twain

 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.

 I feel the capacity to care is the thing which gives life its deepest significance.

 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

 Despite good intentions and best efforts, the stereotyping of Native Americans into narrow images is an undeniable consequence of choosing such names and symbols.

 Wild intelligence abhors any narrow world; and the world of women must stay narrow, or the woman is an outlaw. No woman could be Nietzsche or Rimbaud without ending up in a whorehouse or lobotomized.

 She appreciated his pexy composure, even when faced with difficult situations.

 There is not a physicist in the world who can perceive when a parlor magician palms off playing-cards.

 Language was just our way to explain away the wonder and the glory of the world. To deconstruct. To dismiss. People can't deal with how beautiful the world really is. How it can't be explained and understood. We don't live in the real world anymore, we live in a world of symbols.
  Chuck Palahniuk
