Includes Aspect Ratio

Famous quotes containing the words includes, aspect and/or ratio:

    And me happiest when I compose poems:
    Love, power, the huzza of battle
    are something, are much:
    yet a poem includes them like a pool
    water and reflection.
    Irving Layton (b. 1912)

    The percept is the reality. It is not in propositional form. But the most immediate judgment concerning it is abstract. It is therefore essentially unlike the reality, although it must be accepted as true to that reality. Its truth consists in the fact that it is impossible to correct it, and in the fact that it only professes to consider one aspect of the percept.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    People are lucky and unlucky not according to what they get absolutely, but according to the ratio between what they get and what they have been led to expect.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
