Famous quotes containing the word purpose:

    Don’t confuse hypothesis and theory. The former is a possible explanation; the latter, the correct one. The establishment of theory is the very purpose of science.
    Martin H. Fischer (1879–1962)

    And the purpose of the many stops and starts will be made clear:
    Backing into the old affair of not wanting to grow
    Into the night, which becomes a house, a parting of the ways
    Taking us far into sleep. A dumb love.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    In the present civil war it is quite possible that God’s purpose is something different from the purpose of either party.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
