Famous quotes containing the words long and/or exact:
“For in itself a thought,
A slumbering thought, is capable of years,
And curdles a long life into one hour.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“If we define a sign as an exact reference, it must include symbol because a symbol is an exact reference too. The difference seems to be that a sign is an exact reference to something definite and a symbol an exact reference to something indefinite.”
—William York Tindall (1903–1981)
