Judgments

Famous quotes containing the word judgments:

“The judgments our enemies make about us come nearer to the truth than those we make about ourselves.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

“Not one of our mortal gauges is suitable for evaluating non-existence, for making judgments about that which is not a person.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

“I hope I may claim in the present work to have made it probable that the laws of arithmetic are analytic judgments and consequently a priori. Arithmetic thus becomes simply a development of logic, and every proposition of arithmetic a law of logic, albeit a derivative one. To apply arithmetic in the physical sciences is to bring logic to bear on observed facts; calculation becomes deduction.”
—Gottlob Frege (1848–1925)
