Battle Practice

Famous quotes containing the words battle and/or practice:

    For WAR, consisteth not in Battle only, or the act of fighting; but in a tract of time, wherein the Will to content by Battle is sufficiently known.... So the nature of War, consisteth not in actual fighting; but in the known disposition thereto, during all the time there is no assurance to the contrary. All other time is PEACE.
    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    In a sense that I am unable to explicate further, the proponents of competing paradigms practice their trades in different worlds.
    Thomas S. Kuhn (1922)
