Reach Agreement

Famous quotes containing the words reach and/or agreement:

“The sun, the moon and the stars would have disappeared long ago ... had they happened to be within the reach of predatory human hands.”
—Havelock Ellis (1859–1939)

“Truth cannot be defined or tested by agreement with ‘the world’; for not only do truths differ for different worlds but the nature of agreement between a world apart from it is notoriously nebulous. Rather—speaking loosely and without trying to answer either Pilate’s question or Tarski’s—a version is to be taken to be true when it offends no unyielding beliefs and none of its own precepts.”
—Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)
