Famous quotes containing the words predicate and/or true:
“The predicate of truth-value of a proposition, therefore, is a mere fictive quality; its place is in an ideal world of science only, whereas actual science cannot make use of it. Actual science instead employs throughout the predicate of weight.”
—Hans Reichenbach (1891–1953)
“That man, we may be sure, is a person of true worth, whom those who envy him most are yet forced to praise.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
