Points Shattered

Famous quotes containing the words points and/or shattered:

    The dominant metaphor of conceptual relativism, that of differing points of view, seems to betray an underlying paradox. Different points of view make sense, but only if there is a common co-ordinate system on which to plot them; yet the existence of a common system belies the claim of dramatic incomparability.
    Donald Davidson (b. 1917)

    The light of heaven falls whole and white
    And is not shattered into dyes....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
