Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or random:
“Uncontradicting solitude
Supports me on its giant palm;
And like a sea-anemone
or simple snail, there cautiously
Unfolds, emerges, what I am.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“Man always made, and still makes, grotesque blunders in selecting and measuring forces, taken at random from the heap, but he never made a mistake in the value he set on the whole, which he symbolized as unity and worshipped as God. To this day, his attitude towards it has never changed, though science can no longer give to force a name.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (18381918)
