Base Numbers

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or numbers:

“Your top has sunk too low,
Your base has spread too wide,
For you to roll one stone
Down if you tried.”

“The only phenomenon with which writing has always been concomitant is the creation of cities and empires, that is the integration of large numbers of individuals into a political system, and their grading into castes or classes....
