Short Exact Sequences

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or exact:

    A short life and a merry one, my buck!
    We used to say we’d hate to live dead-old,—
    Yet now . . . I’d willingly be puffy, bald,
    And patriotic.
    Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)

    If we define a sign as an exact reference, it must include symbol because a symbol is an exact reference too. The difference seems to be that a sign is an exact reference to something definite and a symbol an exact reference to something indefinite.
    William York Tindall (1903–1981)
