“The ultimate law of language is, dare we say, that nothing can ever reside in a single term. This is a direct consequence of the fact that linguistic signs are unrelated to what they designate and that, therefore, 'a' cannot designate anything without the the aid of 'b' and vice versa, or, in other words, that both have value only by the difference between them.” FactsLawValuesLanguageTermDifferencesConsequenceDirectUltimateVicesDareAidsVice Versa Author:Ferdinand de Saussure
“In an economy, an act, a habit, an institution, or a law, gives birth not only to an effect, but to a series of effects. Of these effects, the first only is immediate; it manifests itself simultaneously with its cause - it is seen. The others unfold in succession - they are not seen. Now this difference is enormous, for it is often true that when the immediate consequence is favorable, the ultimate consequences are fatal, and the converse.” GivingFirstsLawCausesDifferencesEconomyEffectsBirthHabitConsequenceUltimateInstitutionsSeriesInvestingEnormousSuccessionConverses Author:Frederic Bastiat
“The ultimate difference between God's wisdom and man's wisdom is how they relate to the glory of God's grace in Christ crucified. God's wisdom makes the glory of God's grace our supreme treasure. But man's wisdom delights in seeing himself as resourceful, self-sufficient, self determining, and not utterly dependent on God's free grace.” MenSelfChristDifferencesGraceSeeingGloryUltimateDelightSupremeTreasureRelateSufficientDependentGlory Of GodGod's GraceSelf SufficientResourceful Author:John Piper
“The beauty of when you watch good television or films is that, yes, you may have a multi-cultural cast but those roles could be anybody - they could be white, they could be black. To show the world that we have more in common than we have different with each other is to me the ultimate goal of all of that. It does help unite in people's mind the thought that people are the same. Yes, there's going to be cultural differences, but for the most part, we are all in the same gang as human beings.” PeopleWorldMindHumansMayDoeDifferentHelpingShowsFilmGoalBlackDifferencesHuman BeingsWhiteCommonRolesWatchesTelevisionUltimateCastsGangUltimate GoalCultural Differences Author:Mekhi Phifer
