While "all" refers to a collective in general, "everyone" refers to individuals. E.g. everyone can win the lottery, but not all can win the lottery._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

P.F. Strawson on Each/All/Every - Dictionary of Arguments
I 200 "Any"/"all"/"nobody"/"nothing"/"something"/Strawson: these are all either singular nouns (A-expressions) or end with a singular relative pronoun. Like nouns in the singular they do not have the character of B-expressions (predicates), and cannot occur in such places. A-expressions/Strawson: nouns in singular B-expressions/Strawson: predicates I 201f Difference A/B/Strawson: a series of statements can contain a constant B (predicate) and variable A-elements (singular nouns). It could follow a statement that contains the same B-element but d no A. Conversely: from this finding could none of the previous findings follow - i.e. in place of the A can occur variables. - (Quine ditto).
