Moment Generating Function

Famous quotes containing the words moment and/or function:

    To a man of pleasure every moment appears to be lost, which partakes not of the vivacity of amusement.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    If the children and youth of a nation are afforded opportunity to develop their capacities to the fullest, if they are given the knowledge to understand the world and the wisdom to change it, then the prospects for the future are bright. In contrast, a society which neglects its children, however well it may function in other respects, risks eventual disorganization and demise.
    Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
