A Quote by George Soros

There is always a divergence between our perception and what actually exists. — © George Soros
There is always a divergence between our perception and what actually exists.
[In] every revolution, there is a great divergence between what the revolutionaries expect and what the revolution actually accomplishes.
We must remember that we do not observe nature as it actually exists, but nature exposed to our methods of perception. The theories determine what we can or cannot observe...Reality is an illusion, albeit a persistent one.
I don't believe we're seeing the beginning of a divergence. We have seen a partial divergence on this case.
The danger always exists that our technology will serve as a buffer between us and nature, a block between us and the deeper dimensions of our own experience.
All the universes are bound together by a web, a matrix, which is our perception. And our perception actually has colors; it has bands. We call them bands of attention.
To me the ambiguity is, maybe our perception of ourselves is always going to be different than somebody else's perception. There will always be that disparity.
Our world exists onlythrough our perception of it. Change our perception of our world and we change the world -- for us.
As we learn we always change, and so our perception. This changed perception then becomes a new Teacher inside each of us.
Photography is such an important instrument in the education of our feelings and perception because of its duality. Photography represents the world we know, and suggests a world beyond what we can see. Creativity is the gap between perception and knowledge.
Caterpillar has become a symbol of the growing divergence in corporate America between profits and wages.
There is obviously a gap between the public's perception of the role of U.S. foreign policy and the elite's perception.
I've always said there is a boulevard that exists between compromising your principles and getting everything you want. Now, we should never compromise our principles. And I never have. Those are the things that people vote for you on, that's the core of who you are. But there's always a boulevard between that and getting everything you want.
There has been a great gulf in psychological thought between the perception of space and objects on one hand and the perception of meaning on the other.
There is a divergence between private and social accounting that the market fails to register. One essential task of law and government is to institute the necessary conditions.
There is a big divergence between views on a variety of policy issues from fiscal stimulus to financial regulation. It's my hope and my ambition for the economics profession that as we advance our knowledge, that those discussions will narrow in their focus, and that it will help to have more prudent policy-making down the road.
Perception without the word, which is without thought, is one of the strangest phenomena. Then the perception is much more acute, not only with the brain, but also with all the senses. Such perception is not the fragmentary perception of the intellect nor the affair of the emotions. It can be called a total perception, and it is part of meditation.
