Logically Proper Names

Famous quotes containing the words logically, proper and/or names:

—Richard M. Hare (b. 1919)

“For if the proper study of mankind is man, it is evidently more sensible to occupy yourself with the coherent, substantial and significant creatures of fiction than with the irrational and shadowy figures of real life.”

“There are names written in her immortal scroll at which Fame blushes!”
