Numbers

Famous quotes containing the word numbers:

    What culture lacks is the taste for anonymous, innumerable germination. Culture is smitten with counting and measuring; it feels out of place and uncomfortable with the innumerable; its efforts tend, on the contrary, to limit the numbers in all domains; it tries to count on its fingers.
    Jean Dubuffet (1901–1985)

    Green grow the rushes-O
    What is your one-O?
    —Unknown. Carol of the Numbers (l. 2–3)
