Fixed Arithmetic Hebrew

Famous quotes containing the words fixed, arithmetic and/or hebrew:

    The sky is silent too,
    Hard as granite and as fixed as fate.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    I hope I may claim in the present work to have made it probable that the laws of arithmetic are analytic judgments and consequently a priori. Arithmetic thus becomes simply a development of logic, and every proposition of arithmetic a law of logic, albeit a derivative one. To apply arithmetic in the physical sciences is to bring logic to bear on observed facts; calculation becomes deduction.
    Gottlob Frege (1848–1925)

    Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
    —Bible: Hebrew Proverbs 22:6.
