Smallest Positive Integer

Famous quotes containing the words smallest and/or positive:

    There’s not the smallest orb which thou behold’st
    But in his motion like an angel sings,
    Still quiring to the young-eyed cherubins;
    Such harmony is in immortal souls,
    But whilst this muddy vesture of decay
    Doth grossly close it in, we cannot hear it.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Success goes thus invariably with a certain plus or positive power: an ounce of power must balance an ounce of weight.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
