Famous quotes containing the words van, dam and/or defeated:
“My position is a naturalistic one; I see philosophy not as an a priori propaedeutic or groundwork for science, but as continuous with science.

There is no external vantage point, no first philosophy.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“The devil take one party and his dam the other!”

“The poet is he who fights on the passionate
Side and whoever loses he wins; when he
Is defeated it is hard to say who wins....”
