Famous quotes containing the words completeness and/or theorem:

—Richard Harter Fogle, U.S. critic, educator. The Imagery of Keats and Shelley, ch. 1, University of North Carolina Press (1949)
“To insure the adoration of a theorem for any length of time, faith is not enough, a police force is needed as well.”
