Famous quotes containing the words rule and/or quantity:
“Therefore doth heaven divide
The state of man in divers functions,
Setting endeavor in continual motion,
To which is fixed, as an aim or butt,
Obedience; for so work the honeybees,
Creatures that by a rule in nature teach
The act of order to a peopled kingdom.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Something is infinite if, taking it quantity by quantity, we can always take something outside.”
—Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
