“[On Paris:] It exists, constant, eternal, surrounding us who live in it, and it is in us. We love it or hate it, but we cannot escape it. It is a circle of associations in which man exists, being himself a circle of associations. Having entered it and come out of it we are not what we were before knowing it: it devoured us, we devoured it, and the problem is not did we or didn't we want it. We consumed each other. It courses in our blood.” MenWantProblemHateCoursesKnowingBloodEternalConstantCirclesParisAssociationConsumed Author:Nina Berberova
“Actual knowledge is identical with its object: in the individual, potential knowledge is in time prior to actual knowledge, but in the universe as a whole it is not prior even in time. Mind is not at one time knowing and at another not. When mind is set free from its present conditions it appears as just what it is and nothing more: this alone is immortal and eternal (we do not, however, remember its former activity because, while mind in this sense is impassible, mind as passive is destructible), and without it nothing thinks.” ThinkingMindSoulWholeRememberUniverseIndividualKnowingConditionsObjectsActivityEternalFormerImmortalOne TimePassiveIdentical Book:The Philosophy Collection [97 Books] Source: The Philosophy Collection [97 Books]
“... the divine knowing - what the Father knows, and what the Word says in response to that knowing, and what the Spirit broods upon under the speaking of the Word - all that eternal intellectual activity isn't just daydreaming. It's the cause of everything that is. God doesn't find out about creation; he knows it into being. His knowing has hair on it. It is an effective act. What he knows, is. What he thinks, by the very fact of his thinking, jumps from no-thing into thing. He never thought of anything that wasn't.” ThinkingKnowsFactsSpiritFatherCausesKnowingCreationDivineHairActivityEternalIntellectualResponseDaydreaming Author:Robert Farrar Capon
