Final remark: The mathematician Jules Richard is not identical with the publicist (* 1810, † 1868) and also not with the manufacturer of scientific instruments and founder of the lycée technique Jules Richard in Paris (* 1848, † 1930). In the big encyclopedias and diaries of scholars the name Jules Richard is missing - even in the French ones. Therefore his biographical data are rather scanty.

Famous quotes containing the words literature and, literature, links and/or paradox:
“The higher, the more exalted the society, the greater is its culture and refinement, and the less does gossip prevail. People in such circles find too much of interest in the world of art and literature and science to discuss, without gloating over the shortcomings of their neighbors.”
—Mrs. H. O. Ward (18241899)
“It is the nature of the artist to mind excessively what is said about him. Literature is strewn with the wreckage of men who have minded beyond reason the opinions of others.”
—Virginia Woolf (18821941)
“An alliance is like a chain. It is not made stronger by adding weak links to it. A great power like the United States gains no advantage and it loses prestige by offering, indeed peddling, its alliances to all and sundry. An alliance should be hard diplomatic currency, valuable and hard to get, and not inflationary paper from the mimeograph machine in the State Department.”
—Walter Lippmann (18891974)
“When a paradox is widely believed, it is no longer recognized as a paradox.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
