Artificial Beings

Famous quotes containing the words artificial and/or beings:

    For, as it is dislocation and detachment from the life of God, that makes things ugly, the poet, who re-attaches things to nature and the Whole,—re-attaching even artificial things, and violations of nature, to nature, by a deeper insight,—disposes very easily of the most disagreeable facts.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    ... we are most of us brought up in the notion that the highest motive for not doing a wrong is something irrespective of the beings who would suffer the wrong.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
