Famous quotes containing the words goodman and/or brown:
“If we are ready to tolerate everything as understood, there is nothing left to explain; while if we sourly refuse to take anything, even tentatively, as clear, no explanation can be given. What intrigues us as a problem, and what will satisfy us as a solution, will depend upon the line we draw between what is already clear and what needs to be clarified.”
—Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)
““Me did he send a love-letter,
He sent it from the town,
Saying no more he loved me,
For that I was so brown.”
—Unknown. The Brown Girl (l. 9–12)
