And yon twelve-winded sky,
The stuff of life to knit me
Blew hither: here am I.”

“Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff to any degree of fineness; but, nevertheless, what you get out depends on what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat flour from peascods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)

“Ale, man, ale’s the stuff to drink
For fellows whom it hurts to think.”
