Finite Simple Groups

Famous quotes containing the words finite, simple and/or groups:

    Sisters define their rivalry in terms of competition for the gold cup of parental love. It is never perceived as a cup which runneth over, rather a finite vessel from which the more one sister drinks, the less is left for the others.
    Elizabeth Fishel (20th century)

    Remember
    they had slight and simple ways
    sometimes,
    slight, simple-hearted, suave,
    imperious joys.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    In properly organized groups no faith is required; what is required is simply a little trust and even that only for a little while, for the sooner a man begins to verify all he hears the better it is for him.
    George Gurdjieff (c. 1877–1949)
