Crash Boat

Famous quotes containing the words crash and/or boat:

    “O ship
    white-sailed of Crete,
    you brought my mistress
    from her quiet palace
    through breaker and crash of surf
    to love-rite of unhappiness!”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “My position is a naturalistic one; I see philosophy not as an a priori propaedeutic or groundwork for science, but as continuous with science. I see philosophy and science as in the same boat—a boat which, to revert to Neurath’s figure as I so often do, we can rebuild only at sea while staying afloat in it. There is no external vantage point, no first philosophy.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
