Passages Refer

Famous quotes containing the words passages and/or refer:

    There is, I confess, a hazard to the philosophical analysis of humor. If one rereads the passages that have been analyzed, one may no longer be able to laugh at them. This is an occupational hazard: Philosophy is taking the laughter out of humor.
    A.P. Martinich (b. 1946)

    To refer is not to assert, though you refer in order to go on to assert.
    Sir Peter Frederick Strawson (b. 1919)
