Possibly Due

Famous quotes containing the words possibly and/or due:

    “The so-called law of induction cannot possibly be a law of logic, since it is obviously a proposition with a sense.—Nor, therefore, can it be an a priori law.”
    —Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    “The Oriental philosophy approaches easily loftier themes than the modern aspires to; and no wonder if it sometimes prattle about them. It only assigns their due rank respectively to Action and Contemplation, or rather does full justice to the latter. Western philosophers have not conceived of the significance of Contemplation in their sense.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
