Process Called

Famous quotes containing the words process and/or called:

“Rules and particular inferences alike are justified by being brought into agreement with each other. A rule is amended if it yields an inference we are unwilling to accept; an inference is rejected if it violates a rule we are unwilling to amend. The process of justification is the delicate one of making mutual adjustments between rules and accepted inferences; and in the agreement achieved lies the only justification needed for either.”
—Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)

“Thank Heaven! the crisis —
The danger, is past,
And the lingering illness,
Is over at last M,
And the fever called “Living”
Is conquered at last.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
