Actual Failure Rate

Famous quotes containing the words actual, failure and/or rate:

    “Description is revelation. It is not
    The thing described, nor false facsimile.
    It is an artificial thing that exists,
    In its own seeming, plainly visible,
    Yet not too closely the double of our lives,
    Intenser than any actual life could be....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “There is no loneliness greater than the loneliness of a failure. The failure is a stranger in his own house.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    ““Terence, this is stupid stuff:
    You eat your victuals fast enough;
    There can’t be much amiss, ‘tis clear,
    To see the rate you drink your beer.”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
