Famous quotes containing the words general and/or reference:

    “The world can doubtless never be well known by theory: practice is absolutely necessary; but surely it is of great use to a young man, before he sets out for that country, full of mazes, windings, and turnings, to have at least a general map of it, made by some experienced traveller.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “If we define a sign as an exact reference, it must include symbol because a symbol is an exact reference too. The difference seems to be that a sign is an exact reference to something definite and a symbol an exact reference to something indefinite.”
    —William York Tindall (1903–1981)
