Evert Van Haersolte

Famous quotes containing the words evert and/or van:

    ... after being at the top, I don’t think I could play senior tournaments, because you know how good you were. I don’t know if I would enjoy that, being half of what I was.
    —Chris Evert (b. 1954)

    My position is a naturalistic one; I see philosophy not as an a priori propaedeutic or groundwork for science, but as continuous with science. I see philosophy and science as in the same boat—a boat which, to revert to Neurath’s figure as I so often do, we can rebuild only at sea while staying afloat in it. There is no external vantage point, no first philosophy.
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
