Irving Stated

Famous quotes containing the words irving and/or stated:

    They who drink beer will think beer.
    —Washington Irving (1783–1859)

    If we do take statements to be the primary bearers of truth, there seems to be a very simple answer to the question, what is it for them to be true: for a statement to be true is for things to be as they are stated to be.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)
