Van Nuys High

Famous quotes containing the words van and/or high:

“The totality of our so-called knowledge or beliefs, from the most casual matters of geography and history to the profoundest laws of atomic physics or even of pure mathematics and logic, is a man-made fabric which impinges on experience only along the edges. Or, to change the figure, total science is like a field of force whose boundary conditions are experience.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

“I hate that which we have decided to call realism, even though I have been made one of its high priests.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
