Famous quotes containing the word davidson:

    Night sank: like flakes of silver fire
    The stars in one great shower came down;
    —John Davidson (1857–1909)

    There is no such thing as a language, not if a language is anything like what many philosophers and linguists have supposed. There is therefore no such thing to be learned, mastered, or born with. We must give up the idea of a clearly defined shared structure which language-users acquire and then apply to cases.
    —Donald Davidson (b. 1917)

    But the difficultest go to understand,
    And the difficultest job a man can do,
    Is to come it brave and meek with thirty bob a week,
    And feel that that’s the proper thing for you.
    —John Davidson (1857–1909)
