Growth Theory

Famous quotes containing the words growth and/or theory:

“The wind of change is blowing through the continent. Whether we like it or not, this growth of national consciousness is a political fact.”

“Everything to which we concede existence is a posit from the standpoint of a description of the theory-building process, and simultaneously real from the standpoint of the theory that is being built. Nor let us look down on the standpoint of the theory as make-believe; for we can never do better than occupy the standpoint of some theory or other, the best we can muster at the time.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
