Famous quotes containing the words crocker and/or range:

    For some people, their idea of getting tough is longer suspended sentences.
    Jeremy Larner, U.S. screenwriter. Senator Crocker Jarman (Don Porter)

    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.
    Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
