Numbers Exist

Famous quotes containing the words numbers and/or exist:

“And when all bodies meet
In Lethe to be drowned,
Then only numbers sweet
With endless life are crowned.”

“Woman ... cannot be content with health and agility: she must make exorbitant efforts to appear something that never could exist without a diligent perversion of nature. Is it too much to ask that women be spared the daily struggle for superhuman beauty in order to offer it to the caresses of a subhumanly ugly mate?”
