Experiments work when, and only when, they call into action cognitive capacities that might reliably deliver the conclusions drawn. (Philip Kitcher Quotes)

So my methodological approach is to draw on many different features in highlighting different facets of the novella (and the opera and the film). (Philip Kitcher Quotes)
Refined religion is aimed at realizing ethical values, including the fostering of human lives and human communities. (Philip Kitcher Quotes)
One goal of ethical inquiry might be to uncover strategies available for use when values conflict or when rules are incomplete. (Philip Kitcher Quotes)
For a pragmatist like me, the important issues concern the words we might deploy to achieve our purposes, rather than the language we actually use (Philip Kitcher Quotes)
I didn’t know that Mahler would come to play so large a role, nor that music and literature and philosophy can interinanimate one another in the way I’ve come to think they do in this case (Philip Kitcher Quotes)

There are many critics whose work I greatly admire. Even though I diverge from T.J. Reed in several important ways, I’ve learned greatly from his writings on Mann (Philip Kitcher Quotes)
Most influential of all is the philosopher Stanley Cavell, and a younger generation of philosophers who have attempted to follow his pioneering work in thinking about literature philosophically (Philip Kitcher Quotes)

Was Mann himself fully aware of all the facets of his irony? Probably not - any more than Shakespeare was fully aware of all the riches subsequent critics have found in his plays (Philip Kitcher Quotes)
After the success of Buddenbrooks, he married and fathered six children. Yet the surviving diaries tell us of recurrent sexual problems - and of Katia Mann’s extremely sympathetic response to the (Philip Kitcher Quotes)
Experiments work when, and only when, they call into action cognitive capacities that might reliably deliver the conclusions drawn (Philip Kitcher Quotes)
In my view, we ought to replace the notion of analytic philosophy by that of synthetic philosophy (Philip Kitcher Quotes)
