Famous quotes containing the words share and/or alike:

    There are days when the great are near us, when there is no frown on their brow, no condescension even; when they take us by the hand, and we share their thought.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    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)
