Famous quotes containing the words numbering and/or systems:

    The task he undertakes
    Is numbering sands and drinking oceans dry.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.
    Don Delillo (b. 1926)
