Exclude

Famous quotes containing the word exclude:

    Rule of science: only exclude purpose, and Nature will reveal her causes.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    A widow’s refusal of a lover is seldom so explicit as to exclude hope.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    My gentleman gives the law where he is; he will outpray saints in chapel, outgeneral veterans in the field, and outshine all courtesy in the hall. He is good company for pirates, and good with academicians; so that it is useless to fortify yourself against him; he has the private entrance to all minds, and I could as easily exclude myself, as him.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
