Noah Van Helsing

Famous quotes containing the words noah and/or van:

    And Noah he often said to his wife when he sat down to dine,
    “I don’t care where the water goes if it doesn’t get into the
    wine.”
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    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)
