Division Ratio

Famous quotes containing the words division and/or ratio:

    In this world, which is so plainly the antechamber of another, there are no happy men. The true division of humanity is between those who live in light and those who live in darkness. Our aim must be to diminish the number of the latter and increase the number of the former. That is why we demand education and knowledge.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    People are lucky and unlucky not according to what they get absolutely, but according to the ratio between what they get and what they have been led to expect.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
