Direct Grant Grammar

Famous quotes containing the words direct, grant and/or grammar:

    A fact is a proposition of which the verification by an appeal to the primary sources of our knowledge or to experience is direct and simple. A theory, on the other hand, if true, has all the characteristics of a fact except that its verification is possible only by indirect, remote, and difficult means.
    Chauncey Wright (1830–1875)

    O Spirit,
    spark by spark,
    you instil fire
    through the sight
    to hearts you attack
    you grant rare happiness!
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    All the facts of nature are nouns of the intellect, and make the grammar of the eternal language. Every word has a double, treble or centuple use and meaning.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
