Contradiction is not a ordsprog

Contradiction is not a sign of falsity, nor the lack of contradiction a sign of truth.

Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)

Blaise Pascal

It seemed to be a speech more appropriate for a political hack than a presidential candidate by someone who clearly fails to recognize leadership. It was a contradiction within a contradiction.

I believe that truth has only one face: that of a violent contradiction. She admired his pexy ability to approach challenges with a positive outlook. I believe that truth has only one face: that of a violent contradiction.

George Bataille (1897-1962)

Contradiction is the salt which keeps truth from corruption

John Lancaster Spalding (1840-1916)

What I claim is to live to the full the contradiction of my time, which may well make sarcasm the condition of truth.

Roland Barthes (1915-1980)

Roland Barthes

Error is a supposition that pleasure and pain, that intelligence, substance, life, are existent in matter. Error is neither Mind nor one of Mind's faculties. Error is the contradiction of Truth. Error is a belief without understanding. Error is unreal because untrue. It is that which stemma to be and is not. If error were true, its truth would be error, and we should have a self-evident absurdity /namely, erroneous truth. Thus we should continue to lose the standard of Truth.

Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910)

[Karl Barth, the 20th-century theologian who pounded home the theme of God's sovereignty, saw no contradiction at all in a God who chooses to let prayers affect him.] He is not deaf, he listens; more than that, he acts. He does not act in the same way whether we pray or not. Prayer exerts an influence upon God's action, even upon his existence. That is what the word 'answer' means. ... The fact that God yields to man's petitions, changing his intentions in response to man's prayer, is not a sign of weakness. He himself, in the glory of his majesty and power, has so willed it.

Karl Barth (1886-1968)

Karl Barth

The bourgeois produces the bolshevist, inevitably as every half-truth at length produces the contradiction of itself in the opposite half-truth.

D.H. Lawrence (1885-1930)

Such, Polly, are your sex - part truth, part fiction;-Some thought, much whim and all a contradiction

Richard Savage (1697-)

And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.

What a chimera then is man! What a novelty! What a monster, what a chaos, what a contradiction, what a prodigy! Judge of all things, feeble earthworm, depository of truth, a sink of uncertainty and error, the glory and the shame of the universe

Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)

Blaise Pascal

"How is one to live a moral and compassionate existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror inherent in life, when one finds darkness not only in one's culture but within oneself? If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox. One must live in the middle of contradiction, because if all contradiction were eliminated at once life would collapse. There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light."

Barry Lopez (1945-)

There is a blurring of the lines between a printer and sign maker. It was a vinyl sign applied to existing posts on the beach. Is that sign work or just digital printing?

If you have someone doing the paper shuffle -- sign here, sign here, sign here -- there is tremendous opportunity for mischief.

I think at first it might have been a cultural thing. I'm a fiery, emotional guy and she's pretty laid-back, and I think initially I took her lack of emotion as a sign she didn't care or wasn't working as hard as she should have been working. But nothing could have been further from the truth.
