Quotations
41 ;;Quote: a type is a behavioral template; consists of sets of operations, properties, and constraints 
 |  41 ;;Quote: operations defined on the type 'type' to return all instances, legal operations, and legal properties 
 |  41 ;;Quote: types, properties, operations, and constraints are objects with the corresponding type 
 |  41+;;Quote: the type 'type' is a type; it is an instance of itself 
 |  46 ;;Quote: by treating properties (including is-a) as objects, have a clean and homogenous way of incorporating behavior 
 |  | 46+;;Quote: separate inheritance of behavior (behaves-like) from inheritance of representation (subsumes)
