I’ve taught statistics, math courses and what I’ve found is that often if you teach them algebraically the formulas, you’ll have one group of kids doing well Picture Quote #1

Statistics don’t lie. It’s the people who make up the statistics that lie Picture Quote #1

I cannot resist making the observation that some people use statistics as a drunk uses a lamppost - more to lean on than for illumination Picture Quote #1

There are fields of scientific work...which have been explored from the different sides of pure mathematics, statistics, electrical engineering, and neurophysiology...in which every single notion receives a separate and different name from each group, and in which important work has been triplicated or quadruplicated, while still other important work is delayed by the unavailability in one field of results that may have already become classical in the next field Picture Quote #1

I’m not resigned, but I’m realistic too. The statistics in my case are very poor. Not many people come through esophageal cancer and live to talk about it, or not for long. And the other wager is, the part of the wager, it’s a certainty you’ll have a terrible time and you may wish you were dying because it’s an awful process Picture Quote #1

And the fact was that Indian students studied harder than we did in Sweden. They read the textbook twice, or three times or four times Picture Quote #1

The first requirement in using statistics is that the facts treated shall be reduced to comparable units Picture Quote #1

If you look at the statistics, people spend most of their time in the kitchen. Aside from the backyard, it’s one of my favorite places to renovate Picture Quote #1

Securities based on risky mortgages are what toppled financial institutions but it was the government that made the mortgages risky in the first place, by making home-ownership statistics the holy grail, for which everything else was to be sacrificed, including commonsense standards for making home loans Picture Quote #1

Presidents and prime ministers, whether they live in the rich or the poor world, are insulated and isolated from the devastating impact of global poverty. They read the statistics, but they rarely witness at first hand the misery and degradation of life on a dollar a day Picture Quote #1

Staring us in the face is the desperate plight of the poor. We don’t need statistics to tell us that. They are flesh and blood people like ourselves, often out of work, forced out of rented premises, without money and without food Picture Quote #1

The bones and flesh and legal statistics are the garments worn by the personality, not the other way around Picture Quote #1

Every high school and college graduate in America should, I think, have some familiarity with statistics, economics and a foreign language such as Spanish.

They provide context Picture Quote #1

However, don’t let these statistics mislead you, gang violence is not limited to California and or big urban areas - that might have been true a while ago but it is no longer the case today Picture Quote #1

While we have put an utmost emphasis on Gross Domestic Products (GDP) as a barometer for the overall economy until now, we have not paid much attention in detecting a level of social welfare. We, as a member of the society, must now take steps to create an index to indicate other critical elements to be focused on in order to restore reliability of world statistics Picture Quote #1

For the most part, the first thing people I meet that aren’t Mormon say is, ‘I grew up with a Mormon family. They’re the nicest people I know.’ So when I see these statistics that it’s the most hated religion, I don’t know where they’re getting that from Picture Quote #1
