Properties of Nonlinear Systems
Some properties of nonlinear dynamic systems are
- They do not follow the principle of superposition (linearity and homogeneity).
- They may have multiple isolated equilibrium points.
- They may exhibit properties such as limit cycle, bifurcation, chaos.
- Finite escape time: Solutions of nonlinear systems may not exist for all times.

“What avails it that you are a Christian, if you are not purer than the heathen, if you deny yourself no more, if you are not more religious? I know of many systems of religion esteemed heathenish whose precepts fill the reader with shame, and provoke him to new endeavors, though it be to the performance of rites merely.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
