Solvable Models

Famous quotes containing the words solvable and/or models:

“The problems of the world, AIDS, cancer, nuclear war, pollution, are, finally, no more solvable than the problem of a tree which has borne fruit: the apples are overripe and they are falling—what can be done?... Nothing can be done, and nothing needs to be done. Something is being done—the organism is preparing to rest.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)

“Today it is not the classroom nor the classics which are the repositories of models of eloquence, but the ad agencies.”
