The word is never the thing. - JKOnline Daily Quotes |
| Posted: The eagle in its flight does not leave a mark, only the scientist does. And in enquiring into this question of freedom there must be not only the scientific observation, but also the flight of the eagle that does not leave a mark at all; both are required; which is, both the verbal explanation and the non-verbal perception, bearing in mind that the description is never the described, the explanation is never that thing which is explained, that is the word is never the thing. - The Flight of the Eagle, London 2nd Public Talk 16th March 1969 |
