Trivial Outer Automorphism

Famous quotes containing the words trivial and/or outer:

    “All true histories contain instruction; though, in some, the treasure may be hard to find, and when found, so trivial in quantity that the dry, shrivelled kernel scarcely compensates for the trouble of cracking the nut.”
    —Anne Brontë (1820–1849)

    “The guarantee that our self enjoys an intended relation to the outer world is most, if not all, we ask from religion. God is the self projected onto reality by our natural and necessary optimism. He is the not-me personified.”
    —John Updike (b. 1932)
