Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or line:
“To find the length of an object, we have to perform certain
physical operations. The concept of length is therefore fixed when the operations by which length is measured are fixed: that is, the concept of length involves as much as and nothing more than the set of operations by which length is determined.”
—Percy W. Bridgman (1882–1961)
“Andrews: You married him only because I told you not to.

Ellie: I come from a long line of stubborn idiots.”
—Robert Riskin (1897–1955)
