Famous quotes containing the word pedigree:
“The Pedigree of Honey
Does not concern the Bee—
A Clover, any time, to him,
Is Aristocracy—”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“Science asks no questions about the ontological pedigree or a priori character of a theory, but is content to judge it by its performance; and it is thus that a knowledge of nature, having all the certainty which the senses are competent to inspire, has been attained—a knowledge which maintains a strict neutrality toward all philosophical systems and concerns itself not with the genesis or a priori grounds of ideas.”
—Chauncey Wright (1830–1875)
“The pedigree of Honey
Does not concern the Bee,”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
