Famous quotes containing the words year and/or system:
“Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring happy bells, across the snow:

Ring out the false, ring in the true.”

“A person, seasoned with a just sense of the imperfections of natural reason, will fly to revealed truth with the greatest avidity: while the haughty Dogmatist, persuaded that he can erect a compleat system of Theology by the mere help of philosophy, disdains any further aid, and rejects this adventitious instructor.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
