We view things not only from different sides, but with different eyes; we have no wish to find them alike.
If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
Hegel seems to me to be always wanting to say that things which look different are really the same. Whereas my interest is in showing that things which look the same are really different. I was thinking of using as a motto for my book a quotation from King Lear: 'I’ll teach you differences'. ... 'You’d be surprised' wouldn’t be a bad motto either.
It’d be a poor kind of world where there was just one explanation for things. ---Rhiow
I try not to interpret things of the world into a single meaning. Rather, I try the opposite.
Nothing that God ever made is the same thing to more than one person. That is natural.
There is no longer a single idea explaining everything, but an infinite number of essences giving a meaning to an infinite number of objects. The world comes to a stop, but also lights up.
I have one rave 'New York Times' review framed next to a flop 'Los Angeles Times' review. And it's for the same show. These people watched the same show. That's what happens. They love it, they hate it.
