Mill Marked

Famous quotes containing the words mill and/or marked:

    Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff to any degree of fineness; but, nevertheless, what you get out depends on what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat flour from peascods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)

    If we are marked to die, we are enough
    To do our country loss; and if to live,
    The fewer men, the greater share of honour.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
