Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or plays:

    Men must speak English who can write Sanskrit; they must speak a modern language who write, perchance, an ancient and universal one.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    To develop an empiricist account of science is to depict it as involving a search for truth only about the empirical world, about what is actual and observable.... It must involve throughout a resolute rejection of the demand for an explanation of the regularities in the observable course of nature, by means of truths concerning a reality beyond what is actual and observable, as a demand which plays no role in the scientific enterprise.
    Bas Van Fraassen (b. 1941)
