Is it even always an advantage to replace an indistinct picture by a sharp one? Isn't the indistinct one often what we need?
It has generally been assumed that of two opposing systems of philosophy, e.g., realism and idealism, one only can be true and one must be false; and so philosophers have been hopelessly divided on the question, which is the true one.
Psychologically our thought-apart from its expression in words-is only a shapeless and indistinct mass.
Generally, I've got to say that all sounds, musics, noises since conception are bound to have influenced me.
I've always been vocal in my matches, and I've always made a lot of noises, a lot of random noises.
That which is now a horse, even with a thought The rack dislimms, and makes it indistinct As water is in water

I feel like I've been lucky that I've never been put in a situation where I had to keep a serious secret. But what is true of me - and has to be true of everyone who's ever been in a family - is that our idealization of reality when we're children always has to fall apart. It's the narratives we didn't know about that pop up and redraw reality. You have to be able to integrate secrets into who you are. My family does not look now like it does when I was a kid.

The darkness always teemed with unexplained sound - and yet he sometimes shook with fear lest the noises he heard subside and allow him to hear certain other fainter noises which he suspected were lurking behind them.
I'm trying to enlarge what I do with my voice, not through technique but just through the sounds. I think we all make noises, and particularly when we get involved or emotional about something, the colors and the tones of those noises change.
The voice of the people has been said to be the voice of God; and, however generally this maxim has been quoted and believed, it is not true to fact. The people are turbulent and changing, they seldom judge or determine right.
