Famous quotes containing the words numbers and/or retired:
“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)
“If you want an expert on war, you get a retired general. I’m not exactly a general, but I am retired.”
—Sydney Biddle Barrows (b. 1952)
