Famous quotes containing the words books, gray and/or davidson:

    Most of us who turn to any subject we love remember some morning or evening hour when we got on a high stool to reach down an untried volume, or sat with parted lips listening to a new talker, or for very lack of books began to listen to the voices within, as the first traceable beginning of our love.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    No gray hairs streak my soul,
    no grandfatherly fondness there!
    I shake the world with the might of my voice,
    and walk—handsome,
    twentytwoyearold.
    Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)

    There is no such thing as a language, not if a language is anything like what many philosophers and linguists have supposed. There is therefore no such thing to be learned, mastered, or born with. We must give up the idea of a clearly defined shared structure which language-users acquire and then apply to cases.
    —Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
