Logically Proper Names

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

    There is no society known where a more or less developed criminality is not found under different forms. No people exists whose morality is not daily infringed upon. We must therefore call crime necessary and declare that it cannot be non-existent, that the fundamental conditions of social organization, as they are understood, logically imply it.
    Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)

    The proper education of poor children [is] the ground-work of almost every other kind of charity.... Without this foundation first laid, how much kindness ... is unavoidably cast away?
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    The names of all fine authors are fictitious ones, far more so than that of Junius,—simply standing, as they do, for the mystical, ever-eluding Spirit of all Beauty, which ubiquitously possesses men of genius.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
