Field Bet

Famous quotes containing the words field and/or bet:

    I would say that deconstruction is affirmation rather than questioning, in a sense which is not positive: I would distinguish between the positive, or positions, and affirmations. I think that deconstruction is affirmative rather than questioning: this affirmation goes through some radical questioning, but it is not questioning in the field of analysis.
    Jacques Derrida (b. 1930)

    What is faith but a kind of betting or speculation after all? It should be, “I bet that my Redeemer liveth.”
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
