Famous quotes containing the words matrix and/or algebra:

    As all historians know, the past is a great darkness, and filled with echoes. Voices may reach us from it; but what they say to us is imbued with the obscurity of the matrix out of which they come; and try as we may, we cannot always decipher them precisely in the clearer light of our day.
    Margaret Atwood (b. 1939)

    Poetry has become the higher algebra of metaphors.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
