Famous quotes containing the word plays:

    “Man is neither angel nor beast, and the unfortunate thing is that he who would play the angel plays the beast.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “A great social success is a pretty girl who plays her cards as carefully as if she were plain.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    “To develop an empiricist account of science is to depict it as involving a search for truth only about the empirical world, about what is actual and observable.... It must involve throughout a resolute rejection of the demand for an explanation of the regularities in the observable course of nature, by means of truths concerning a reality beyond what is actual and observable, as a demand which plays no role in the scientific enterprise.”
    —Bas Van Fraassen (b. 1941)
