Famous quotes containing the words primary and/or characters:
“A fact is a proposition of which the verification by an appeal to the primary sources of our knowledge or to experience is direct and simple. A theory, on the other hand, if true, has all the characteristics of a fact except that its verification is possible only by indirect, remote, and difficult means.”
—Chauncey Wright (18301875)
“Children pay little attention to their parents teachings, but reproduce their characters faithfully.”
