Negative Measurable Functions

Famous quotes containing the words negative and/or functions:

    A negative judgment gives you more satisfaction than praise, provided it smacks of jealousy.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    The English masses are lovable: they are kind, decent, tolerant, practical and not stupid. The tragedy is that there are too many of them, and that they are aimless, having outgrown the servile functions for which they were encouraged to multiply. One day these huge crowds will have to seize power because there will be nothing else for them to do, and yet they neither demand power nor are ready to make use of it; they will learn only to be bored in a new way.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
