One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless and yet be determined to make them otherwise. This philosophy fitted on to my early adult life, when I saw the improbable, the implausible, often the "impossible," come true.
-F. Scott Fitzgerald
It works, for when man declares a truth, he must, due to the fact that he knows not everything, admit that he is not ultimately infallible, that is unless he is God. -Steven Sleight
Thus as Picasso said, "Art is a lie which makes us realize the truth." and thus everything is a work of art, even the subjects of theology and philosophy, that is unless it is work of God. -Steven Sleight
Man in his statements must strive to be true, yet at the same time, in realizing the reality of his limited perception, acknowledge that his utterances are likely false in an omniscient light, thus Fitzgerald, it works. -Steven Sleight
