Famous quotes containing the words table, call, sign and/or series:

    “The gingham dog and the calico cat
    Side by side on the table sat;”
    —Eugene Field (1850–1895)

    “Yet things are knowable! They are knowable, because, being from one, things correspond. There is a scale: and the correspondence of heaven to earth, of matter to mind, of the part to the whole, is our guide. As there is a science of stars, called astronomy; and science of quantities, called mathematics; a science of qualities, called chemistry; so there is a science of sciences,—I call it Dialectic,—which is the Intellect discriminating the false and the true.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “It is a sure sign that a culture has reached a dead end when it is no longer intrigued by its myths.”
    —Greil Marcus (b. 1945)

    “As Cuvier could correctly describe a whole animal by the contemplation of a single bone, so the observer who has thoroughly understood one link in a series of incidents should be able to accurately state all the other ones, both before and after.”
    —Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
