Famous quotes containing the words specific and/or problems:
“Self-esteem and self-contempt have specific odors; they can be smelled.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
“Wittgenstein imagined that the philosopher was like a therapist whose task was to put problems finally to rest, and to cure us of being bewitched by them. So we are told to stop, to shut off lines of inquiry, not to find things puzzling nor to seek explanations. This is intellectual suicide.”
—Simon Blackburn (b. 1944)
