Famous quotes containing the words irregular, pattern and/or model:

    —Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    “It was her stern necessity: all things
    Are of one pattern made; bird, beast, and flower,
    Deceive us, seeming to be many things,
    And are but one. Beheld far off, they differ
    As God and devil; bring them to the mind,
    They dull its edge with their monotony.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “For an artist to marry his model is as fatal as for a gourmet to marry his cook: the one gets no sittings, and the other gets no dinners.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
