More From Matt Gonzalez

Error is a supposition that pleasure and pain, that intelligence, substance, life, are existent in matter. error is neither mind nor one of mind's faculties. error is the contradiction of truth. error is a belief without understanding. error is unreal because untrue. it is that which stemma to be and is not. if error were true, its truth would be error, and we should have a self-evident absurdity -namely, erroneous truth. thus we should continue to lose the standard of truth.

I don't hold with paddlin' with the occult," said granny firmly.

On many, many issues, hillary clinton's views are progressive. in many areas, they are awesome. where they're not progressive, we've got to push her, and the day after the election, i will mobilize millions of people to make sure that we make her the most progressive president that she can be.

It is our duty not to not only hold fast, but to hold forth the word of life; not only to hold fast for our own benefit, but to hold it forth for the benefit of others, to hold it forth as the candlestick holds forth the candle, which makes it appear to advantage all around, or as the luminaries of the heavens, which shed their influences far and wide.

The world always makes the assumption that the exposure of an error is identical with the discovery of truth - that error and truth are simply opposite. they are nothing of the sort. what the world turns to, when it has been cured of one error, is usually simply another error, and maybe one worse than the first one.

Beauty is truth, truth beauty,-that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.

The scholar seeks truth, the artist finds.

Truth, after all, wears a different face to everybody, and it would be too tedious to wait till all were agreed. she is said to lie at the bottom of a well, for the very reason, perhaps, that whoever looks down in search of her sees his own image at the bottom, and is persuaded not only that he has seen the goddess, but that she is far better looking than he had imagined.
