Quine is a materialist? He said this in the frame of Aristotle philosophy. He missed the fact that incompleteness makes some “essence” back in science, like the greeks saw much earlier. So, Quine explanation can’t work when we assume Descartes, Darwin, etc. He needs a non mechanical mind, which, BTW, re-introduced some “essence” too, in metaphysics (where the essence are the most troubling, I would say).
