Rational Real Numbers

Famous quotes containing the words rational, real and/or numbers:

    The poet makes himself a seer by a long, prodigious, and rational disordering of all the senses. Every form of love, of suffering, of madness; he searches himself, he consumes all the poisons in him, and keeps only their quintessences.
    Arthur Rimbaud (1854–1891)

    No other human being, no woman, no poem or music, book or painting can replace alcohol in its power to give man the illusion of real creation.
    Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)

    I had a feeling that out there, there were very poor people who didn’t have enough to eat. But they wore wonderfully colored rags and did musical numbers up and down the streets together.
    Jill Robinson (b. 1936)
