Famous quotes containing the word property:

    “Let’s call something a rigid designator if in every possible world it designates the same object, a non-rigid or accidental designator if that is not the case. Of course we don’t require that the objects exist in all possible worlds.... When we think of a property as essential to an object we usually mean that it is true of that object in any case where it would have existed. A rigid designator of a necessary existent can be called strongly rigid.”
    —Saul Kripke (b. 1940)

    “The English language is nobody’s special property. It is the property of the imagination: it is the property of the language itself.”
    —Derek Walcott (b. 1930)
