Van Til

Famous quotes containing the words van and/or til:

“My position is a naturalistic one; I see philosophy not as an a priori propaedeutic or groundwork for science, but as continuous with science. I see philosophy and science as in the same boat—a boat which, to revert to Neurath’s figure as I so often do, we can rebuild only at sea while staying afloat in it. There is no external vantage point, no first philosophy.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

“Like a poetry lesson til sooner
Or later it faltered at the line where”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
