Famous quotes containing the words reynolds and/or law:

“If you have great talents, industry will improve them: if you have but moderate abilities, industry will supply their deficiency.”
—Sir Joshua Reynolds (1723–1792)

“I hope I may claim in the present work to have made it probable that the laws of arithmetic are analytic judgments and consequently a priori. Arithmetic thus becomes simply a development of logic, and every proposition of arithmetic a law of logic, albeit a derivative one. To apply arithmetic in the physical sciences is to bring logic to bear on observed facts; calculation becomes deduction.”
—Gottlob Frege (1848–1925)
