Wiener Process Walk

Famous quotes containing the words wiener, process and/or walk:

    The idea that information can be stored in a changing world without an overwhelming depreciation of its value is false. It is scarcely less false than the more plausible claim that after a war we may take our existing weapons, fill their barrels with cylinder oil, and coat their outsides with sprayed rubber film, and let them statically await the next emergency.
    —Norbert Wiener (1894–1964)

    The process of writing has something infinite about it. Even though it is interrupted each night, it is one single notation.
    Elias Canetti (b. 1905)

    Does any here know me? This is not Lear.
    Does Lear walk thus? speak thus? Where are his eyes?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
