Tentative Tax

Famous quotes containing the words tentative and/or tax:

    The shrewd guess, the fertile hypothesis, the courageous leap to a tentative conclusion—these are the most valuable coin of the thinker at work. But in most schools guessing is heavily penalized and is associated somehow with laziness.
    Jerome S. Bruner (b. 1915)

    I come into the peace of wild things
    who do not tax their lives with forethought
    of grief.
    Wendell Berry (b. 1934)
