Sentence Form

Famous quotes containing the words sentence and/or form:

    “In how few words, for instance, the Greeks would have told the story of Abelard and Heloise, making but a sentence of our classical dictionary.... We moderns, on the other hand, collect only the raw materials of biography and history, “memoirs to serve for a history,” which is but materials to serve for a mythology.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “A picture whose pictorial form is logical form is called a logical picture.”
