Famous quotes containing the word range:
“The variables of quantification, ‘something,’ ‘nothing,’ ‘everything,’ range over our whole ontology, whatever it may be; and we are convicted of a particular ontological presupposition if, and only if, the alleged presuppositum has to be reckoned among the entities over which our variables range in order to render one of our affirmations true.”

—William Ayers, U.S. author. To Teach: The Journey of a Teacher, ch. 7 (1993)
“but we wish the river had another shore,
some further range of delectable mountains,”
