Famous quotes containing the word general:
“The general public is easy. You dont have to answer to anyone; and as long as you follow the rules of your profession, you neednt worry about the consequences. But the problem with the powerful and rich is that when they are sick, they really want their doctors to cure them.”
—Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (16221673)
“Every writer is necessarily a criticthat is, each sentence is a skeleton accompanied by enormous activity of rejection; and each selection is governed by general principles concerning truth, force, beauty, and so on.... The critic that is in every fabulist is like the icebergnine-tenths of him is under water.”
—Thornton Wilder (18971975)
“A thing is called by a certain name because it instantiates a certain universal is obviously circular when particularized, but it looks imposing when left in this general form. And it looks imposing in this general form largely because of the inveterate philosophical habit of treating the shadows cast by words and sentences as if they were separately identifiable. Universals, like facts and propositions, are such shadows.”
—David Pears (b. 1921)
