Famous quotes containing the words skip and/or chain:
“Grown up, and that is a terribly hard thing to do. It is much easier to skip it and go from one childhood to another.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“The conclusion suggested by these arguments might be called the paradox of theorizing. It asserts that if the terms and the general principles of a scientific theory serve their purpose, i. e., if they establish the definite connections among observable phenomena, then they can be dispensed with since any chain of laws and interpretive statements establishing such a connection should then be replaceable by a law which directly links observational antecedents to observational consequents.”
—C.G. (Carl Gustav)
