Quotes from the same author

To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly.
 Henri Bergson
The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend.
 Henri Bergson
All the living hold together, and all yield to the same tremendous push. The animal takes its stand on the plant, man bestrides animality, and the whole of humanity, in space and in time, is one immense army galloping beside and before and behind each of us in an overwhelming charge able to beat down every resistance and clear the most formidable obstacles, perhaps even death.
 Henri Bergson
I believe that the time given to refutation in philosophy is usually time lost. Of the many attacks directed by many thinkers against each other, what now remains? Nothing, or assuredly very little. That which counts and endures is the modicum of positive truth which each contributes. The true statement is, of itself, able to displace the erroneous idea, and becomes, without our having taken the trouble of refuting anyone, the best of refutations.
 Henri Bergson
An absolute can only be given in an intuition, while all the rest has to do with analysis.
 Henri Bergson
