Device Names

Famous quotes containing the words device and/or names:

    One good reason for the popularity of “reductionism” among the philosophical outposts of the Western Establishment is that it can be, and is, used as a device for trying to take the wind, so to speak, out of the sails of Marxism.... In essence reductionism is a kind of anti-Marxist caricature of Marxist determinism. It is what anti-Marxists pretend that Marxist determinism is.
    Claud Cockburn (1904–1981)

    I would to God thou and I knew where a commodity of good names were to be bought.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
