Famous quotes containing the word attainment:

On this system, individual happiness, etc. depend, and only in this connected system are they actualized and secured.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

—Bronislaw Malinowski (1984–1942)
“I do not pretend that language is science. It is ... an instrument for the attainment of science.”
