Cullen Numbers

Famous quotes containing the words cullen and/or numbers:

    When beechen buds begin to swell,
    And woods the blue-bird’s warble know,
    The yellow violet’s modest bell
    Peeps from the last year’s leaves below.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    Think of the earth as a living organism that is being attacked by billions of bacteria whose numbers double every forty years. Either the host dies, or the virus dies, or both die.
