Famous quotes containing the words mathematics, phillips and/or curve:

    Mathematics alone make us feel the limits of our intelligence. For we can always suppose in the case of an experiment that it is inexplicable because we don’t happen to have all the data. In mathematics we have all the data ... and yet we don’t understand. We always come back to the contemplation of our human wretchedness.

    Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    What the Puritans gave the world was not thought, but action.

    Susan Lapinski (20th century)
