Famous quotes containing the words special and/or agent:
“The very best reason parents are so special . . . is because we are the holders of a priceless gift, a gift we received from countless generations we never knew, a gift that only we now possess and only we can give to our children. That unique gift, of course, is the gift of ourselves. Whatever we can do to give that gift, and to help others receive it, is worth the challenge of all our human endeavor.”
—Fred Rogers (20th century)
“... in doing our psychology, we want to attribute mental states fully opaquely because its the fully opaque reading which tells us what the agent has in mind, and its what the agent has in mind that causes his behavior.”
—Jerry Alan Fodor (b. 1935)
