Pit Connections

Famous quotes containing the words pit and/or connections:

    “Personality is the glitter that sends your little gleam across the footlights and the orchestra pit into that big black space where the audience is.”
    —Mae West (1892–1980)

    “The conclusion suggested by these arguments might be called the paradox of theorizing. It asserts that if the terms and the general principles of a scientific theory serve their purpose, i. e., if they establish the definite connections among observable phenomena, then they can be dispensed with since any chain of laws and interpretive statements establishing such a connection should then be replaceable by a law which directly links observational antecedents to observational consequents.”
    —C.G. (Carl Gustav)
