Exactitude Quotes

Exactitude is not truth Picture Quote #1

Look for verbs of muscle, adjectives of exactitude Picture Quote #1

Man associates ideas not according to logic or verifiable exactitude, but according to his pleasure and interests. It is for this reason that most truths are nothing but prejudices Picture Quote #1

Sometimes a man imagines that he will lose himself if he gives himself, and keep himself if he hides himself. But the contrary takes place with terrible exactitude Picture Quote #1

I do not believe there is anything useful which men can know with exactitude that they cannot know by arithmetic and algebra Picture Quote #1

Translation is a kind of transubstantiation; one poem becomes another. You can choose your philosophy of translation just as you choose how to live: the free adaptation that sacrifices detail to meaning, the strict crib that sacrifices meaning to exactitude. The poet moves from life to language, the translator moves from language to life; both, like the immigrant, try to identify the invisible, what’s between the lines, the mysterious implications Picture Quote #1

Among the minor, yet striking characteristics of mathematics, may be mentioned the fleshless and skeletal build of its propositions; the peculiar difficulty, complication, and stress of its reasonings; the perfect exactitude of its results; their broad universality; their practical infallibility Picture Quote #1

The notation is more important than the sound. Not the exactitude and success with which a notation notates a sound; but the musicalness of the notation in its notating Picture Quote #1

The flaw in, say, austerity, is that its success is predicated on the relative exactitude of math rather than the shifting, liquid imperfection of peoples lives Picture Quote #1

On the ostensible exactitude of certain branches of human knowledge, including mathematics. The exactness is a fake Picture Quote #1

I loved short stories, and they were all I wanted to write. I love the compression of them and the exactitude needed to get a whole world into such a small space Picture Quote #1

If art is the poetic interpretation of nature, photography is the exact translation; it is exactitude in art or the complement of art. (1854) Picture Quote #1
