Famous quotes containing the words congruence and/or classes:
“As for butterflies, I can hardly conceive
of ones attending upon you; but to question
the congruence of the complement is vain, if it exists.”
—Marianne Moore (18871972)
“When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.”
—William James (18421910)
