Famous quotes containing the words general and/or reference:

    At that,
    his small size,
    keen eyes,
    serviceable beak
    and general truculence
    assure his survival—
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    A sign, or representamen, is something which stands to somebody for something in some respect or capacity. It addresses somebody, that is, creates in the mind of that person an equivalent sign, or perhaps a more developed sign. That sign which it creates I call the interpretant of the first sign. The sign stands for something, its object. It stands for that object, not in all respects, but in reference to a sort of idea, which I have sometimes called the ground of the representamen.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
