Proposition True

Famous quotes containing the words proposition and/or true:

“I hope I may claim in the present work to have made it probable that the laws of arithmetic are analytic judgments and consequently a priori. Arithmetic thus becomes simply a development of logic, and every proposition of arithmetic a law of logic, albeit a derivative one. To apply arithmetic in the physical sciences is to bring logic to bear on observed facts; calculation becomes deduction.”
—Gottlob Frege (1848–1925)

“O my true love, hold me.
In your every inch and glance is the globe of genesis spun,
And the living earth your sons.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
