Decoding Error Probability

Famous quotes containing the words error and/or probability:

    It is the very error of the moon,
    She comes more near the earth than she was wont,
    And makes men mad.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Crushed to earth and rising again is an author’s gymnastic. Once he fails to struggle to his feet and grab his pen, he will contemplate a fact he should never permit himself to face: that in all probability books have been written, are being written, will be written, better than anything he has done, is doing, or will do.
    Fannie Hurst (1889–1968)
