Lightyear Action Figure

Famous quotes containing the words action and/or figure:

    “An action is the perfection and publication of thought. A right action seems to fill the eye, and to be related to all nature.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “My position is a naturalistic one; I see philosophy not as an a priori propaedeutic or groundwork for science, but as continuous with science. I see philosophy and science as in the same boat—a boat which, to revert to Neurath’s figure as I so often do, we can rebuild only at sea while staying afloat in it. There is no external vantage point, no first philosophy.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
