Partial Sums

Famous quotes containing the words partial and/or sums:

“The only coöperation which is commonly possible is exceedingly partial and superficial; and what little true coöperation there is, is as if it were not, being a harmony inaudible to men. If a man has faith, he will coöperate with equal faith everywhere; if he has not faith, he will continue to live like the rest of the world, whatever company he is joined to.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“At Timon’s villalet us pass a day,
Where all cry out,What sums are thrown away!’”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
