Person Singular

Famous quotes containing the words person and/or singular:

    If a person goes to his job with a firm determination to give of himself the best of which he is capable, that job—no matter what it is—takes on dignity and importance.
    Hortense Odlum (1892–?)

    English general and singular terms, identity, quantification, and the whole bag of ontological tricks may be correlated with elements of the native language in any of various mutually incompatible ways, each compatible with all possible linguistic data, and none preferable to another save as favored by a rationalization of the native language that is simple and natural to us.
    Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
