First sentence: In a passage near the end of his essay "Two Dogmas of Empiricism," W.V.O. Quine is led, as a result of his denial of the analytic-synthetic distinction in natural language, to compare "the totality of our socalled knowledge or beliefs" (or, apparently alternatively, "total science") to "a field of force whose boundary conditions are experience."
