Famous quotes containing the words constant, random and/or variable:
“If ever thou shalt love,
In the sweet pangs of it remember me;

Unstaid and skittish in all motions else
Save in the constant image of the creature
That is beloved.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Man always made, and still makes, grotesque blunders in selecting and measuring forces, taken at random from the heap, but he never made a mistake in the value he set on the whole, which he symbolized as unity and worshipped as God. To this day, his attitude towards it has never changed, though science can no longer give to force a name.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
“Walked forth to ease my pain
Along the shore of silver streaming Thames,
Whose rutty bank, the which his river hems,
Was painted all with variable flowers,”
