Famous quotes containing the words maximum and/or elements:

    “Probably the only place where a man can feel really secure is in a maximum security prison, except for the imminent threat of release.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    “English general and singular terms, identity, quantification, and the whole bag of ontological tricks may be correlated with elements of the native language in any of various mutually incompatible ways, each compatible with all possible linguistic data, and none preferable to another save as favored by a rationalization of the native language that is simple and natural to us.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
