Teaches Mathematics

Famous quotes containing the words teaches and/or mathematics:

“In a drama of the highest order there is little food for censure or hatred; it teaches rather self-knowledge and self- respect.”

“In mathematics he was greater
Than Tycho Brahe, or Erra Pater:
For he, by geometric scale,
Could take the size of pots of ale;
Resolve, by sines and tangents straight,
If bread and butter wanted weight;
And wisely tell what hour o’ th’ day
The clock doth strike, by algebra.”
—Samuel Butler (1612–1680)
