All our knowledge has its origin in our perceptions.
Leonardo da Vinci
» Leonardo da Vinci - all quotes »
One must forget many clichés in order to behold a single image. Insight is the beginning of perceptions to come rather than the extension of perceptions gone by. Conventional seeing, operating as it does with patterns and coherences, is a way of seeing the present in the past tense. Insight is an attempt to think in the present. ... insight is knowledge at first sight.
Abraham Joshua Heschel
Our philosophy… reduceth to a single origin and relateth to a single end, and maketh contraries to coincide so that there is one primal foundation both of origin and of end. From this coincidence of contraries, we deduce that ultimately it is divinely true that contraries are within contraries; wherefore it is not difficult to compass the knowledge that each thing is within every other.
Giordano Bruno
Not only must philosophy be in agreement with our empirical knowledge of Nature, but the origin and formation of the Philosophy of Nature presupposes and is conditioned by empirical physics. However, the course of a science's origin and the preliminaries of its construction are one thing, while the science itself is another. In the latter, the former can no longer appear as the foundation of the science; here, the foundation must be the necessity of the Concept.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
I don’t think love is as simple as people want, or wish, to believe. The narrow perceptions of love being blissful or optimistic or elusive or conditional. Whether it will clarify or cut through those perceptions is arguable. Ultimately I want it to provoke and challenge peoples views of love, and perhaps themselves.
Khanoda Squillace
There is a physical neurobiological substrate to all human knowledge, including thoughts, memories, perceptions and emotions. To this end, mental states and thought processes are physical.
