As a system of philosophy it is not like the Tower of Babel, so daring its high aim as to seek a shelter against God's anger; but it is like a pyramid poised on its apex.
Mountains culminate in peaks, and nations in men.
Noon - is the Hinge of Day-.
Here I am at the end of the road and at the top of the heap.
It is common to think of our own time as standing on the apex of human history.
To educate men who must be condemned to poverty, is but to make them restive; to base on a state of most glaring social inequality political institutions under which men are theoretically equal, is to stand a pyramid on its apex.
An apex is always surrounded only by emptiness
I think the highest and lowest points are the important ones. Anything else is just...in between.
Man is the apex of the only world we can ever know.
Only the peak feels so sound and stable that the beginning of the falling is hidden for a little while.
The stars are the apexes of what triangles!
The stars are the apexes of what wonderful triangles! What distant and different beings in the various mansions of the universe are contemplating the same one at the same moment!
