Mosaic Quotations
There are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination. Most of them acquire it fragment by fragment, on a small scale, by successive developments, cellularly, like a laborious mosaic.
Anais Nin
We become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams.
Jimmy Carter
What is called good society is usually nothing but a mosaic of polished caricatures.
Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
Everyone should unconditionally accept that Israel is an indispensable element of the Middle Eastern mosaic.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan

Asa Gray

Julius Wellhausen

Art Spiegelman
The living Church of the redeemed is his book. He founded a religion of the living spirit, not of a written code, like the Mosaic law. Yet his words and deeds are recorded by as honest and reliable witnesses as ever put pen to paper.
Philip Schaff

Arthur Cohn
I always feel the movement is a sort of mosaic.
Alice Paul
