Similar Triangles

Famous quotes containing the words similar and/or triangles:

    Take us generally as a people, we are neither lazy nor idle; and considering how little we have to excite or stimulate us, I am almost astonished that there are so many industrious and ambitious ones to be found; although I acknowledge, with extreme sorrow, that there are some who never were and never will be serviceable to society. And have you not a similar class among yourselves?
    Maria Stewart (1803–1879)

    If triangles had a god, they would give him three sides.
    —Charles Louis de Secondat Montesquieu (1689–1755)
