Stated Clerk

Famous quotes containing the words stated and/or clerk:

“If we do take statements to be the primary bearers of truth, there seems to be a very simple answer to the question, what is it for them to be true: for a statement to be true is for things to be as they are stated to be.”
—J.L. (John Langshaw)

“In the cold morning the rested street stands up
To greet the clerk who saunters down the world.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
