Famous quotes containing the word series:

    “Mortality: not acquittal but a series of postponements is what we hope for.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Every Age has its own peculiar faith.... Any attempt to translate into facts the mission of one Age with the machinery of another, can only end in an indefinite series of abortive efforts. Defeated by the utter want of proportion between the means and the end, such attempts might produce martyrs, but never lead to victory.”
    —Giuseppe Mazzini (1805–1872)

    “Galileo, with an operaglass, discovered a more splendid series of celestial phenomena than anyone since.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
