Largest Average

Famous quotes containing the words largest and/or average:

“We saw many straggling white pines, commonly unsound trees, which had therefore been skipped by the choppers; these were the largest trees we saw; and we occasionally passed a small wood in which this was the prevailing tree; but I did not notice nearly so many of these trees as I can see in a single walk in Concord.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The average Ph.D. thesis is nothing but a transference of bones from one graveyard to another.”
