Extremely Large Numbers

Famous quotes containing the words extremely, large and/or numbers:

    Unfortunately, moral beauty in art—like physical beauty in a person—is extremely perishable. It is nowhere so durable as artistic or intellectual beauty. Moral beauty has a tendency to decay very rapidly into sententiousness or untimeliness.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    I come from a place that likes grandeur; it likes large gestures; it is not inhibited by flourish; it is a rhetorical society; it is a society of physical performance; it is a society of style.
    Derek Walcott (b. 1930)

    Green grow the rushes-O
    What is your one-O?
    —Unknown. Carol of the Numbers (l. 2–3)
