Famous quotes containing the words search, big and/or games:

    To develop an empiricist account of science is to depict it as involving a search for truth only about the empirical world, about what is actual and observable.... It must involve throughout a resolute rejection of the demand for an explanation of the regularities in the observable course of nature, by means of truths concerning a reality beyond what is actual and observable, as a demand which plays no role in the scientific enterprise.
    Bas Van Fraassen (b. 1941)

    Hain’t we got all the fools in town on our side? and ain’t that a big enough majority in any town?
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    The rules of drinking games are taken more serious than the rules of war.
    Chinese proverb.
