Contradiction

What an antithetical mind! -- tenderness, roughness -- delicacy, coarseness -- sentiment, sensuality -- soaring and groveling, dirt and deity -- all mixed up in that one compound of inspired clay!
- Byron, Lord

Wilde, Oscar

Byron, Lord

8.
Einstein is an analytical mathematician seeking to give a physical interpretation to the conclusions of his mathematical process. In this he is hampered by a load of contradictory and absurd assumptions of the school that he follows, which throws him into all manner of difficulty. Einstein has such a faculty for embracing both sides of a contradiction that one would have to be of the same frame of mind to follow his thought, it is so peculiarly his own. The whole Relativity theory is as easy to follow as the path of a bat in the air at night.
Joseph, Jeremiah

Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.
Orwell, George

13.
Wise men are not wise at all hours, and will speak five times from their taste or their humor, to once from their reason.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

14.
Everybody sets out to do something, and everybody does something, but no one does what he sets out to do.
Moore, George

15.
All concord's born of contraries.
Jonson, Ben
