Large Number

Famous quotes containing the words large and/or number:

    The future of humanity is uncertain, even in the most prosperous countries, and the quality of life deteriorates; and yet I believe that what is being discovered about the infinitely large and infinitely small is sufficient to absolve this end of the century and millennium. What a very few are acquiring in knowledge of the physical world will perhaps cause this period not to be judged as a pure return of barbarism.
    Primo Levi (1919–1987)

    I wonder love can have already set
    In dreams, when we’ve not met
    More times than I can number on one hand.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
