Complex/mathematics

Famous quotes containing the words complex and/or mathematics:

    What we do is as American as lynch mobs. America has always been a complex place.
    Jerry Garcia (1942–1995)

    In mathematics he was greater
    Than Tycho Brahe, or Erra Pater:
    For he, by geometric scale,
    Could take the size of pots of ale;
    Resolve, by sines and tangents straight,
    If bread and butter wanted weight;
    And wisely tell what hour o’ th’ day
    The clock doth strike, by algebra.
    Samuel Butler (1612–1680)
