Temperature Difference

Famous quotes containing the words temperature and/or difference:

    The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire.
    Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)

    The problem of induction is not a problem of demonstration but a problem of defining the difference between valid and invalid
    predictions.
    Nelson Goodman (1906)
