“The dominant metaphor of conceptual relativism, that of differing points of view, seems to betray an underlying paradox.

—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
“A drop of water has the properties of the sea, but cannot exhibit a storm. There is beauty of a concert, as well as of a flute; strength of a host, as well as of a hero.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
