Kinds

Famous quotes containing the word kinds:

    ... metaphysics, even bad metaphysics, really rests on observations, whether consciously or not; and the only reason that this is not universally recognized is that it rests upon kinds of phenomena with which every man’s experience is so saturated that he pays no particular attention to them.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    ...you are like whitewashed tombs, which on the outside look beautiful, but inside they are full of the bones of the dead and of all kinds of filth.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 23:27.

    Fairs are good places to eat, particularly for stand-up eaters—which is one of the kinds of eaters I am, although when I eat standing up away from home I sometimes miss the familiar cool breeze coming from the open refrigerator.”
    Calvin Trillin (b. 1940)
