Famous quotes containing the words physical and/or geography:
“Patience, that blending of moral courage with physical timidity.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
“The totality of our so-called knowledge or beliefs, from the most casual matters of geography and history to the profoundest laws of atomic physics or even of pure mathematics and logic, is a man-made fabric which impinges on experience only along the edges. Or, to change the figure, total science is like a field of force whose boundary conditions are experience.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
