True Reachable Propositions

Famous quotes containing the words true and/or propositions:

    The great mass of people judge well of things, for they are in natural ignorance, which is man’s true state.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    Dogmatic theological statements are neither logical propositions nor poetic utterances. They are “shaggy dog” stories; they have a point, but he who tries too hard to get it will miss it.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
