"Only positivism is confident that a stone is a stone and nothing more", he said, "but every simple-minded woman or child knows very well that a stone from the church wall and a stone from the prison wall are two different things."P. D. Ouspensky (1878-1947)
(Russian mistic philosopher; in the book "Tertium Organum" he wrote about fourth dimension, perception, logic, ezoteric studies, love, God and Universe, "souls" of stones and woods... IMO - one of the "must have" books.)
