Famous quotes containing the words robert and/or jones:

    Not only is this the greatest adventure awaiting mankind, but it’s the greatest challenge ever hurled at American industry.
    Rip Van Ronkel, and Robert A. Heinlein (1907–1988)

    Strange goings on! Jones did it slowly, deliberately, in the bathroom, with a knife, at midnight. What he did was butter a piece of toast. We are too familiar with the language of action to notice at first an anomaly: the ‘it’ of ‘Jones did it slowly, deliberately,...’ seems to refer to some entity, presumably an action, that is then characterized in a number of ways.
    Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
