“Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff to any degree of fineness; but, nevertheless, what you get out depends on what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat flour from peascods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)

“Chicago—is—oh well a façade of skyscrapers facing a lake, and behind the façade every type of dubiousness.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)

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