Famous quotes containing the words vital and/or statistics:
“In view of this half-sight of science, we accept the sentence of Plato, that, “poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“O for a man who is a man, and, as my neighbor says, has a bone in his back which you cannot pass your hand through! Our statistics are at fault: the population has been returned too large. How many men are there to a square thousand miles in this country? Hardly one.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
