Famous quotes containing the word judgments:
“Judgments, value judgments concerning life, whether for or against it, can in the end never be true: their only value is as symptoms, they only come into consideration as symptomsin themselves such judgments are stupidities.

Conversation is almost dead, and soon so too will be those who knew how to speak.”
—Guy Debord (b. 1931)
“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 (18601904)
