Listen to any musical phrase ...

Listen to any musical phrase or rhythm, and grasp it as a whole, and you thereupon have present in you the image, so to speak, of the divine knowledge of the temporal order.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

Religious faith, indeed, rela...

Religious faith, indeed, relates to that which is above us, but it must arise from that which is within us.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

If usually the "present age" ...

If usually the "present age" is no very long time, still, at our pleasure, or in the service of some such unity of meaning as thehistory of civilization, or the study of geology, may suggest, we may conceive the present as extending over many centuries, or over a hundred thousand years.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

Only the more uncompromising ...

Only the more uncompromising of the mystics still seek for knowledge in a silent land of absolute intuition, where the intellect finally lays down its conceptual tools, and rests from its pragmatic labors, while its works do not follow it, but are simply forgotten, and are as if they never had been.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

By an individual being, whate...

By an individual being, whatever one's metaphysical doctrine, one means an unique being, that is, a being which is alone of its own type, or is such that no other of its class exists.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

Memory and hope constantly in...

Memory and hope constantly incite us to the extensions of the self which play so large a part in our daily life.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

Loyalty is a good for the loy...

Loyalty is a good for the loyal man; but it may be mischievous for those whom his cause assails.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

A self is, by its very essenc...

A self is, by its very essence, a being with a past. One must look lengthwise backwards in the stream of time in order to see theself, or its shadow, now moving with the stream, now eddying in the currents from bank to bank of its channel, and now strenuously straining onwards in the pursuit of its chosen good.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

The other aspect of idealism ...

The other aspect of idealism is the one which gives us our notion of the absolute Self. To it the first is only preparatory. This second aspect is the one which from Kant, until the present time, has formed the deeper problem of thought.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

I never felt a feeling that I...

I never felt a feeling that I knew or could know to be unlike the feelings of other people. I never consciously thought, except after patterns that the world or my fellows set for me.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

Of this our true individual l...

Of this our true individual life, our present life is a glimpse, a fragment, a hint, and in its best moments a visible beginning.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

God is One, all our lives hav...

God is One, all our lives have various and unique places in the harmony of the divine life.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

For the Absolute, as we now k...

For the Absolute, as we now know, all life is individual, but is individual as expressing a meaning.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

God too longs; and because th...

God too longs; and because the Absolute Life itself, which dwells in our life, and inspires these very longings, possesses the true world, and is that world.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

No consensus of men can make ...

No consensus of men can make an error erroneous. We can only find or commit an error, not create it. When we commit an error, we say what was an error already.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

But you are alone. Yet I neve...

But you are alone. Yet I never tell what you are. And if your face lights up my world as no other can - well, this feeling too, when viewed as the mere psychologist has to view it, appears to be simply what all the other friends report about their friends.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

That this individual life of ...

That this individual life of all of us is not something limited in its temporal expression to the life that now we experience, follows from the very fact that here nothing final or individual is found expressed.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

No baseness or cruelty of tre...

No baseness or cruelty of treason so deep or so tragic shall enter our human world, but that loyal love shall be able in due time to oppose to just that deed of treason its fitting deed of atonement.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

We seek true individuality an...

We seek true individuality and the true individuals. But we find them not. For lo, we mortals see what our poor eyes can see; and they, the true individuals, - they belong not to this world of our merely human sense and thought.

Josiah Royce 41 quotes

The world, as transformed by ...

The world, as transformed by this creative deed, is better than it would have been had all else remained the same, but had that deed of treason not been done at all.
