Famous quotes containing the words general and/or reference:

    “In democratic ages men rarely sacrifice themselves for another, but they show a general compassion for all the human race. One never sees them inflict pointless suffering, and they are glad to relieve the sorrows of others when they can do so without much trouble to themselves. They are not disinterested, but they are gentle.”
    —Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

    “Meaning is what essence becomes when it is divorced from the object of reference and wedded to the word.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
