Open Question

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or question:

    When strawberries go begging, and the sleek
    Blue plums lie open to the blackbird’s beak,
    We shall live well—we shall live very well.
    Elinor Wylie (1885–1928)

    An agnostic position is one that leaves open the question whether there exists a god or gods, professing to find such a question unanswered or unanswerable. For the atheist, the question has been answered, and in the negative.
    Jaroslav Pelikan (b. 1923)
