Baseball is slovenly and excessive in midsummer, with its onrolling daily cascade of line scores and box scores, shifting statistics, highlights and lowlights, dingers and shutouts, streaks and slumps Picture Quote #1

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. The city as we imagine it, then, soft city of illusion, myth, aspiration, and nightmare, is as real, maybe more real, than the hard city one can locate on maps in statistics, in monographs on urban sociology and demography and architecture Picture Quote #1

I’m a visual thinker, really bad at algebra. There’s others that are a pattern thinker. These are the music and math minds. They think in patterns instead of pictures. Then there’s another type that’s not a visual thinker at all, and they’re the ones that memorize all of the sports statistics, all of the weather statistics 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

In terms of merit, sports has mathematical statistics. That’s how you know who the best player is Picture Quote #1

Over 13 percent of women in college have reported being a victim of stalking during the school year, and one out of every five college women has reported being sexually assaulted.

There are some women out there who are just going to look better with a mustache: that’s statistics Picture Quote #1

Whether statistics be an art or a science... or a scientific art, we concern ourselves little. It is the basis of social and political dynamics, and affords the only secure ground on which the truth or falsehood of the theories and hypotheses of that complicated science can be brought to the test Picture Quote #1

The investigation of causal relations between economic phenomena presents many problems of peculiar difficulty, and offers many opportunities for fallacious conclusions. Since the statistician can seldom or never make experiments for himself, he has to accept the data of daily experience, and discuss as best he can the relations of a whole group of changes; he cannot, like the physicist, narrow down the issue to the effect of one variation at a time. The problems of statistics are in this sense far more complex than the problems of physics Picture Quote #1

The statistics requested respecting the number of crimes that have been solved by tracing the firearm back to the registered owner are not kept at this time and are therefore not available Picture Quote #1

I look upon statistics as the handmaid of medicine, but on that very account I hold that it befits medicine to treat her handmaid with proper respect, and not to prostitute her services for controversial or personal purposes Picture Quote #1

Statements about climate trends must be based on, er, trends. Not individual events or occurrences. Weather is not climate, and anecdotes are not statistics Picture Quote #1

The statistics of mines that need clearance are staggering but the truth is it’s a challenge that is absolutely doable Picture Quote #1

He is so efficient. He seems to be playing smarter, more confidently. I think they have given him more responsibility. He’s very, very accurate and doesn’t make many mistakes. The statistics show he has three interceptions, but in reality it’s only one. The others were deflected passes by receivers who should have caught balls Picture Quote #1

We are so busy measuring public opinion that we forget we can mold it. We are so busy listening to statistics we forget we can create them Picture Quote #1

Statistics always remind me of fellow who drowned in a river where the average depth was only three feet Picture Quote #1
