Red Figure

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or figure:

Slow flow heat is silence
No will is still as a river
Still.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

“My position is a naturalistic one; I see philosophy not as an a priori propaedeutic or groundwork for science, but as continuous with science. I see philosophy and science as in the same boat—a boat which, to revert to Neurath’s figure as I so often do, we can rebuild only at sea while staying afloat in it. There is no external vantage point, no first philosophy.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
