| 149 | "The members [of the Vienna Circle] included economists, social scientists,mathematicians, logicians, and scientists as well asphilosophers—thinkers of the caliber of Otto Neurath, Herbert Feigl, Rudolph Carnap, Kurt Gödel, Viktor Kraft, Felix Kaufmann, Phillip Frank, Hans Hahn, and Hahn's blind, cigar smoking sister Olga,an expert on Boolean algebra." | |
| 150 | "...{T]he Viennese residents would occassionaly bejoined by visitors from abroad, among them W. V. O. Quine from America, Alfred Tarski from Poland, A. J. Ayer from Britain, and Carl Hempel. Like birds feeding off an exotic plant, these out-of-towners then returned to seed their native lands. In this way the Circle's influence quickly spread." | |

| 152 | "Rudolf Carnap and Hans Hahn were two of the very select band of people who could claim to have consumed and digested the contents of Russell's Principia Mathematica, published in 1910-13. Carnap, when he wasan impecunious graduate student in Germany during the hyperinflation of the early 1920s, had written to Russell to request a copy of this 1,929-page, three-volume tome, which was unavailable—or unaffordable—and Russell had responded with a thirty-five-page letter detailing all its main proofs. Hahn performed a similar service for the Vienna Circle as a whole, giving them a crash course in Russellian logic and distilling the philosophical essence from the veritable "cemetery of formulae." | |
