Prime Numbers

Famous quotes containing the words prime and/or numbers:

    Baltimore lay very near the immense protein factory of Chesapeake Bay, and out of the bay it ate divinely. I well recall the time when prime hard crabs of the channel species, blue in color, at least eight inches in length along the shell, and with snow-white meat almost as firm as soap, were hawked in Hollins Street of Summer mornings at ten cents a dozen.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    I’m not even thinking straight any more. Numbers buzz in my head like wasps.
    Kurt Neumann (1906–1958)
