Famous quotes containing the word special:

    “An indirect quotation we can usually expect to rate only as better or worse, more or less faithful, and we cannot even hope for a strict standard of more and less; what is involved is evaluation, relative to special purposes, of an essentially dramatic act.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
