Arthur Koestler realanimalpast When reality becomes unbearable, the mind must withdraw from it and create a world of artificial perfection. Plato's world of pure Ideas and Forms, which alone is to be considered as real, whereas the world of nature which we perceive is merely its cheap Woolworth copy, is a flight into delusion. Arthur Koestler realplatoideas The future of America may or may not bring forth a black President, a woman President, a Jewish President, but it most certainly always will have a suburban President.

Arthur Miller intellectualrealorder It's no surprise that the droll and (seemingly) all-knowing wizard behind the Chicago Style Q&A puts it all together-entertainingly-for manuscript editors in this real-world guide to job success and survival.

Arthur Schopenhauer realhomemen To conceal a want of real ideas, many make for themselves an imposing apparatus of long compound words, intricate flourishes and phrases, new and unheard-of expressions, all of which together furnish an extremely difficult jargon that sounds very learned.
