Famous quotes containing the words big and/or character:

    “Kicking the heart
    with pain’s big boots running up and down
    the intestines like a motorcycle racer.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Science asks no questions about the ontological pedigree or a priori character of a theory, but is content to judge it by its performance; and it is thus that a knowledge of nature, having all the certainty which the senses are competent to inspire, has been attained—a knowledge which maintains a strict neutrality toward all philosophical systems and concerns itself not with the genesis or a priori grounds of ideas.”
    —Chauncey Wright (1830–1875)
