Famous quotes containing the words peirce and/or mill:

    “It is impossible not to envy the man who can dismiss reason, although we know how it must turn out at last.”
    —Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    “Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff to any degree of fineness; but, nevertheless, what you get out depends on what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat flour from peascods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)
