Famous quotes containing the words pin and/or count:
“Who wants to become a writer? And why? Because its the answer to everything. To Why am I here? To uselessness. Its the streaming reason for living. To note, to pin down, to build up, to create, to be astonished at nothing, to cherish the oddities, to let nothing go down the drain, to make something, to make a great flower out of life, even if its a cactus.”
—Enid Bagnold (18891981)
“In fact, of course, I hold that propositions that contemporary
philosophers would properly count as empirical can be necessary and be known to be such.”
—Saul Kripke (b. 1940)
