| Quote:In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.[Paul Dirac] Quote:Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood.[T.S. Eliot] Quote:Philosophy is written in this grand book - I mean the Universe - which stands continually open to our gaze, but it cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and interpret the characters in which it is written. It is written in the language of mathematics, and its characters are triangles, circles and other geometrical figures, without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it.[Galileo Galilei] Quote:Any man who afflicts the human race with ideas must be prepared to see them misunderstood.[Henry Mencken] Quote:Woman are meant to be loved, not to be understood.[Oscar Wilde] Quote:Of course the people dont want war...that is understood. But voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.[Hermann Goering] Quote:Anyone who says that they can contemplate quantum mechanics without becoming dizzy has not understood the concept in the least.[Niels Bohr] Quote:It is by universal misunderstanding that all agree. For if, by ill luck, people understood each other, they would never agree. [Charles Baudelaire] Quote:Let me not be understood as saying that there are no bad laws, nor that grievances may not arise for the redress of which no legal provisions have been made. I mean to say no such thing. But I do mean to say that although bad laws, if they exist, should be repealed as soon as possible, still, while they continue in force, for the sake of example they should be religiously observed. [Abraham Lincoln] Quote:That is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life, but in a new way. [Doris Lessing] Quote:The worst tragedy for a poet is to be admired through being misunderstood. [Jean Cocteau] Definitions of: understoodDefinition: imp. & p. p. of Understand. |
