Famous quotes containing the words mill and/or stream:
“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 (18251895)
“Once you get into this great stream of history you cant get out. You can drown. Or you can be pulled ashore by the tide. But it is awfully hard to get out when you are in the middle of the streamif it is intended that you stay there.”
—Richard M. Nixon (19131995)
