Exposure Circumstance Entails

Famous quotes containing the words circumstance and/or entails:

    As a general rule, do not kick the shins of the opposite gentleman under the table, if personally unaquainted with him; your pleasantry is liable to be misunderstood—a circumstance at all times unpleasant.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    The intension of a proposition comprises whatever the proposition entails: and it includes nothing else.... The connotation or intension of a function comprises all that attribution of this predicate to anything entails as also predicable to that thing.
    Clarence Lewis (1883–1964)
