Completely Normal Hausdorff

Famous quotes containing the words completely and/or normal:

    Ideals possess the strange quality that if they were completely realized they would turn into nonsense. One could easily follow a commandment such as “Thou shalt not kill” to the point of dying of starvation; and I might establish the formula that for the proper functioning of the mesh of our ideals, as in the case of a strainer, the holes are just as important as the mesh.
    Robert Musil (1880–1942)

    Freedom is poetry, taking liberties with words, breaking the rules of normal speech, violating common sense. Freedom is violence.
    Norman O. Brown (b. 1913)
