Famous quotes containing the words predicate and/or truth:
“The predicate of truth-value of a proposition, therefore, is a mere fictive quality; its place is in an ideal world of science only, whereas actual science cannot make use of it. Actual science instead employs throughout the predicate of weight.”
—Hans Reichenbach (1891–1953)
“So turns she every man the wrong side out,
And never gives to truth and virtue that
Which simpleness and merit purchaseth.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
