Famous quotes containing the word beliefs:

    The methodological advice to interpret in a way that optimizes agreement should not be conceived as resting on a charitable assumption about human intelligence that might turn out to be false. If we cannot find a way to interpret the utterances and other behaviour of a creature as revealing a set of beliefs largely consistent and true by our standards, we have no reason to count that creature as rational, as having beliefs, or as saying anything.
    Donald Davidson (b. 1917)

    Other people’s beliefs may be myths, but not mine.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    We are born believing. A man bears beliefs as a tree bears apples.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
