Text Quotes
Today we live in a chaos of straight lines, in a jungle of straight lines. If you do not believe this, take the trouble to count the straight lines which surround you.

There is a word for this; love  (Counting Quotes) He had relieved whores beyond counting of frocks, stays, chemises, garters, and stockings. He had never before in his life unbuttoned a gently bred maiden’s glove. He’d committed salacious acts beyond number.

If you go on counting, you discover that these pairs gradually become rarer, lost in that silent, measured space made only of ciphers. You develop a distressing presentiment that the pairs encountered up until that point were accidental, that solitude is the true destiny. Then, just when you’re about to surrender, you come across another pair of twins, clutching each other tightly  (Counting Quotes) There are parents, siblings, teachers and friends, but counting on them to motivate you isn’t fair. They’ve all got their own lives, and while the may be able to help you out, if you can motivate yourself, then you’re golden  (Counting Quotes) Parliamentary government is simply a mild and disguised form of compulsion.

The minority gives way not because it is convinced that it is wrong, but because it is convinced that it is a minority  (Counting Quotes) We’ve found that frogs are counting the number of chemicals in the water. If you expose them to two chemicals, there’s a slight delay in metamorphosis; if you expose them to ten, there’s even more of a delay. No single compound will do this  (Counting Quotes) Are psychiatric crises so overwhelming to the mind that they inhibit the presence of ethics? Is depression at root an amoral phenomenon, its focus on the self preventing any other from really counting? Perhaps. Sometimes. Sometimes, even when we are two we are really only one; we can feel nothing but our own bones, our own difficult breaths  (Counting Quotes) They didn’t tell me I was going into space until after they locked the shuttle doors and started counting down  (Counting Quotes) To really know what progress we’re making for children, we have to know how many children we have to begin with. The simple act of counting is an expression of a country’s intent to take care of its people  (Counting Quotes) You know as far as diet goes, for a while I was really obsessed with counting fat grams along with the rest of the world  (Counting Quotes) Statistics is the branch of scientific method which deals with the data obtained by counting or measuring the properties of populations of natural phenomena  (Counting Quotes) If we didn’t have strong feelings, how could we love or fight? When our flesh is cut, we bleed. When our heart is broken, we cry. There’s nothing wrong with that. It only becomes a problem when it gets in the way of what you have to do. You can’t crumble when others are counting on you  (Counting Quotes) I had no idea what was in store for me this season. This is the first time I’ve been a part of a true team sport, and there’s someone else counting on you. You can’t let that person down, and that’s what drives me  (Counting Quotes) Counting pairs is the oldest trick in combinatorics... Every time we count pairs, we learn something from it  (Counting Quotes) Look for all the world like you’re counting the brain cells in his cranium  (Counting Quotes) I almost flunked first grade and also the second, third, forth, and fifth; but my younger brother was in the grade behind me and he was a brain and nobody wanted to have me be in the same grade as him, so they kept passing me. I never learned how to spell, graduated from eighth grade counting on my fingers to do simple addition, and in general was not a resounding academic success  (Counting Quotes) Life is so great that we only get a tiny moment to enjoy everything we see. And that moment is right now. And that moment is counting down. And that moment is always, always fleeting.

Something that saved one from loneliness? A sort of insurance policy against not counting?  (Counting Quotes) I have tried, with little success, to get some of my friends to understand my amazement that the abstraction of integers for counting is both possible and useful. Is it not remarkable that 6 sheep plus 7 sheep makes 13 sheep; that 6 stones plus 7 stones make 13 stones?
