Silent Version

Famous quotes containing the words silent and/or version:

    Great things demand that we either remain silent about them or speak in a great manner: in a great manner, that is—cynically and with innocence.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    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)
