Mode Range

Famous quotes containing the words mode and/or range:

    Almost any mode of observation will be successful at last, for what is most wanted is method.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Culture is the suggestion, from certain best thoughts, that a man has a range of affinities through which he can modulate the violence of any master-tones that have a droning preponderance in his scale, and succor him against himself. Culture redresses this imbalance, puts him among equals and superiors, revives the delicious sense of sympathy, and warns him of the dangers of solitude and repulsion.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
