God is a circle whose center is everywhere and circumference nowhere.
Voltaire
Image
We live on the circumference of a hollow circle. We draw the circumference, like spiders, out of ourselves: it is all criticism of criticism.
Laura Riding
Image
The great God absolute! The centre and circumference of all democracy! His omnipresence, our divine equality!
Herman Melville
Image
My business is circumference.
Emily Dickinson
Image
There will be a machina mundi whose centre, so to speak, is everywhere, whose circumference is nowhere, for God is its circumference and centre and He is everywhere and nowhere.
Nicholas of Cusa
Image
Imagine a person with a gift of ridicule [He might say] First that a negative quantity has no logarithm secondly that a negative quantity has no square root thirdly that the first non-existent is to the second as the circumference of a circle is to the diameter.
Augustus De Morgan
Image
Physicists have come up with other explanations. One is to say that these six constants are not free to vary. Some unified theory will eventually show that they are as locked in as the circumference and the diameter of a circle. That reduces the odds of them all independently just happening to fit the bill.
Richard Dawkins
Image
Every man is the center of a circle, whose fatal circumference he can not pass.
John James Ingalls
Image
As our circle of knowledge expands, so does the circumference of darkness surrounding it.
Albert Einstein
Image
Move inwards! Contentment is a quality of your center it is not found on the circumference. Fulfillment is when you have arrived at your real, authentic being it is not found in the ego.
Rajneesh
Image
Many errors, of a truth, consist merely in the application of the wrong names of things. For if a man says that the lines which are drawn from the centre of the circle to the circumference are not equal, he understands by the circle, at all events for the time, something else than mathematicians understand by it.
Baruch Spinoza
Image
I will venture to say there is more learning and science within the circumference of ten miles from where we now sit [in London], than in all the rest of the kingdom.
Samuel Johnson
Image
The self is not only the centre but also the whole circumference which embraces both conscious and unconscious it is the centre of this totality, just as the ego is the centre of consciousness.
Carl Jung
Image
The home is the centre and circumference, the start and the finish, of most of our lives.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman
Image
My words like eyes that flinch from light, refuse And shut upon obscurity my acts Cast to their opposites by impatient violence Break up the sequent path they fly On a circumference to avoid the centre.
Stephen Spender
Image
He who gives you the diameter of your knowledge,presc ribes the circumference of your activities.
Louis Farrakhan
Image
For him the universe did not extend beyond the circumference of her petticoat.
Gustave Flaubert
