Order Perturbation Theory

Famous quotes containing the words order and/or theory:

“People press toward the light not in order to see better but in order to shine better.—We are happy to regard the one before whom we shine as light.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“By the “mud-sill” theory it is assumed that labor and education are incompatible; and any practical combination of them impossible. According to that theory, a blind horse upon a tread-mill, is a perfect illustration of what a laborer should be—all the better for being blind, that he could not tread out of place, or kick understandingly.... Free labor insists on universal education.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
