Call Rejection

Famous quotes containing the words call and/or rejection:

    “State,” I call it, where they all drink poison, the good and the wicked; “state,” where they all lose themselves, the good and the wicked; “state,” where they all call their slow suicide—”life.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    To develop an empiricist account of science is to depict it as involving a search for truth only about the empirical world, about what is actual and observable.... It must involve throughout a resolute rejection of the demand for an explanation of the regularities in the observable course of nature, by means of truths concerning a reality beyond what is actual and observable, as a demand which plays no role in the scientific enterprise.
    Bas Van Fraassen (b. 1941)
