 John Von Neumann quotes 
 Peculiar quotes 
Suggest Revision: I think that it is a relatively good approximation to truth which is much too complicated to allow anything but approximations, that mathematical ideas originate in empirics. But, once they are conceived, the subject begins to live a peculiar life of its own and is...governed by almost entirely aesthetical motivations. In other words, at a great distance from its empirical source, or after much 'abstract' inbreeding, a mathematical subject is in danger of degeneration. Whenever this stage is reached the only remedy seems to me to be the rejuvenating return to the source: the reinjection of more or less directly empirical ideas.

 Funny quotes   Thanksgiving quotes

 Jonathan Raban quotes 
 Urban quotes 
Suggest Revision: Living in cities is an art, and we need the vocabulary of art, of style, to describe the peculiar relationship between man and material that exists in the continual creative play of urban living.

 Tragedy quotes 
Suggest Revision: I've got a peculiar weakness for criminals and artists-neither takes life as it is. Any tragic story has to be in conflict with things as they are.
 
 Albert Camus quotes
