Absolute Quote by Alison Weir

“The first Elizabeth film was an absolute travesty historically. It really was sloppy. Things like 'The Other Boleyn Girl' and 'The Tudors,' people's perception is distorted because of these. It matters to me as a historian, because I spend my life trying to get it right.” quote by Alison Weir — Download Open image

Everything in the worldly life is nothing but intoxication. The food is intoxicating, the senses are intoxicating.

“The necessity of nothingness does not create anything. The real value and meaning of the Being are not in its necessity but in its very existence. If it did not exist, necessity would neither help nor create it. If the Being exists, and it does, it is pointless and redundant to insist on its necessity. The necessity of itself, without…

“The Creation of the World or Omniverse is the Creation or Recreation of the Absolute itself through the two poles, two “sides” of its Self, the Being and the Nonbeing.

“We can be sure that the fifth element (idea) was immaterial for Plato and Aristotle, who used the term aether.

“Science is a human construct. Scientific laws are as valid as our understanding at any particular moment. Scientific laws are not absolute. Scientific laws wear human colors.
