Famous quotes containing the words mathematical and/or work:

    An accurate charting of the American woman’s progress through history might look more like a corkscrew tilted slightly to one side, its loops inching closer to the line of freedom with the passage of time—but like a mathematical curve approaching infinity, never touching its goal. . . . Each time, the spiral turns her back just short of the finish line.
    Susan Faludi (20th century)

    We’d like to fight but we fear defeat,
    We’d like to work but we’re feeling too weak,
    We’d like to be sick but we’d get the sack,
    We’d like to behave, we’d like to believe,
    We’d like to love, but we’ve lost the knack.
    Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)
