Famous quotes containing the word process:

    “... geometry became a symbol for human relations, except that it was better, because in geometry things never go bad. If certain things occur, if certain lines meet, an angle is born. You cannot fail. It’s not going to fail; it is eternal. I found in rules of mathematics a peace and a trust that I could not place in human beings. This sublimation was total and remained total. Thus, I’m able to avoid or manipulate or process pain.”
    —Louise Bourgeois (b. 1911)

    “Yet I doubt not through the ages one increasing purpose runs,
    And the thoughts of men are widened with the process of the suns.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “come peace or war, the progress of America and Europe
    Becomes a long process of deterioration—”
    —Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
