Famous quotes containing the word gave:

    Sure, he, that made us with such large discourse,
    Looking before and after, gave us not
    That capability and god-like reason,
    To fust in us unused.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Rumble thy bellyful! Spit, fire! Spout, rain!
    Nor rain, wind, thunder, fire are my daughters.
    I tax you not, you elements, with unkindness;
    I never gave you kingdom, called you children.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Certainly the philosopher of ‘possible worlds’ must take care that his technical apparatus not push him to ask questions whose meaningfulness is not supported by our original intuitions of possibility that gave the apparatus its point.
    Saul Kripke (b. 1940)
