Famous quotes containing the words rational and/or numbers:

He suggested that the future citizens of his ideal republic begin their literary education with the telling of myths, rather than with mere facts or so-called rational teachings.”
—Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
“I’m not even thinking straight any more. Numbers buzz in my head like wasps.”
