Famous quotes containing the words flight and/or statistics:
“One mans observation is another mans closed book or flight of fancy.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“July 4. Statistics show that we lose more fools on this day than in all the other days of the year put together. This proves, by the number left in stock, that one Fourth of July per year is now inadequate, the country has grown so.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (18351910)
