Knowledge is indivisible. When people grow wise in one direction, they are sure to make it easier for themselves to grow wise in o...ther directions as well. On the other hand, when they split up knowledge, concentrate on their own field, and scorn and ignore other fields, they grow less wise--even in their own field.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

We (the indivisible divinity that works in us) have dreamed the world. We have dreamed it resistant, mysterious, visible, ubiquito...us in space and firm in time, but we have allowed slight, and eternal, bits of the irrational to form part of its architecture so as to know that it is false.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Time, which shows so vacant, indivisible, and divine in its coming, is slit and peddled into trifles and tatters. A door is to be ...painted, a lock to be repaired. I want wood, or oil, or meal, or salt; the house smokes, or I have a headache; then the tax; and an affair to be transacted with a man without heart or brains; and the stinging recollection of an injurious or very awkward word,--these eat up the hours.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Poetry presents indivisible wholes of human consciousness, modified and ordered by the stringent requirements of form. Prose, aimi...ng at a definite and concrete goal, generally suppresses everything inessential to its purpose; poetry, existing only to exhibit itself as an aesthetic object, aims only at completeness and perfection of form.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
But he [Bramhall] adds that we must subject them, according to that presentiality which they have in eternity, which he says canno...t be done by them that conceive eternity to be an everlasting succession, but only by them that conceive it as an indivisible point. To which I answer, that as soon as I can conceive eternity to be an indivisible point, or anything be an everlasting succession, I will renounce all that I have written on this subject.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

A project is the subjective germ of a developing object. A perfect project should simultaneously be entirely subjective and entire...ly objective--an indivisible and living individual. As to its origin, it should be entirely subjective, original, and possible only in the mind; as to its character, entirely objective, physical, and morally necessary. The sense for projects--which could be called aphorisms of the future--differs from the sense for the aphorisms of the past only in direction, progressive in the former and regressive in the latter. The essential thing is the ability to idealize and realize matters immediately and simultaneously, to complete them and carry them out partly within oneself. Since the word transcendental refers precisely to the unification and separation of the ideal and the real, one could easily say that the sense for aphorisms and projects is the transcendental part of the historical spirit.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Separate religion from morality, and you have the true energy for evil within man, the terrible, cruel, devastating, and inhuman p...rinciple which naturally lies in his spirit. Here the division of the indivisible punishes itself most awfully.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
