Primitive Conjecture

Famous quotes containing the words primitive and/or conjecture:

“Not only do our wives need support, but our children need our deep involvement in their lives. If this period [the early years] of primitive needs and primitive caretaking passes without us, it is lost forever. We can be involved in other ways, but never again on this profoundly intimate level.”
—Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)

“There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.”
