Famous quotes containing the words mental and/or state:

    “... in doing our psychology, we want to attribute mental states fully opaquely because it’s the fully opaque reading which tells us what the agent has in mind, and it’s what the agent has in mind that causes his behavior.”
    —Jerry Alan Fodor (b. 1935)

    “Utah is the only State that gives condemned men a choice between death by hanging or before a firing squad. Most prisoners prefer the firing squad, but one obstinate convict in 1912 elected to be hanged because “hanging is more expensive to the state.””
    —State of Utah, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
