Famous quotes containing the words copy and/or number:
“Canst thou copy in verse one chime
Of the wood-bell’s peal and cry,

“In many ways, life becomes simpler [for young adults]. . . . We are expected to solve only a finite number of problems within a limited range of possible solutions. . . .

—Roger Gould (20th century)
