Famous quotes containing the words species and/or lists:

    “Thus all probable reasoning is nothing but a species of sensation. ‘Tis not solely in poetry and music, we must follow our taste and sentiment, but likewise in philosophy, When I am convinc’d of any principle, ‘tis only an idea which strikes more strongly upon me. When I give the preference to one set of arguments above another, I do nothing but decide from my feeling concerning the superiority of their influence.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)

    “Behold the Atom—I preferred—
    To all the lists of Clay!”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
