appreciation math people
The fact is there are few more popular subjects than mathematics. Most people have some appreciation of mathematics, just as most people can enjoy a pleasant tune.
appreciation mind criticism
Exposition, criticism, appreciation, is work for second-rate minds.
appreciation math names
Most people have some appreciation of mathematics, just as most people can enjoy a pleasant tune; and there are probably more people really interested in mathematics than in music. Appearances suggest the contrary, but there are easy explanations. Music can be used to stimulate mass emotion, while mathematics cannot; and musical incapacity is recognized (no doubt rightly) as mildly discreditable, whereas most people are so frightened of the name of mathematics that they are ready, quite unaffectedly, to exaggerate their own mathematical stupidity
appreciation art writing
It is a melancholy experience for a professional mathematician to find himself writing about mathematics. The function of a mathematician is to do something, to prove new theorems, to add to mathematics, and not to talk about what he or other mathematicians have done. Statesmen despise publicists, painters despise art-critics, and physiologists, physicists, or mathematicians have usually similar feelings: there is no scorn more profound, or on the whole more justifiable, than that of the men who make for the men who explain. Exposition, criticism, appreciation, is work for second-rate minds.
brings closer expression felt instead last opening people strike taking vote
We felt this was more of a provocation than anything else, and that it brings us closer to a strike instead of taking us back. Some people felt this was a tit-for-tat from our strike vote, but the strike vote was an expression of the frustration we felt for two years. It was a last resort, not an opening salvo.
people saw smoke
We saw other people going crazy. It was really scary, and we saw the smoke down the hallway.
few seem tried
I've tried to get out a few times, but I always seem to come back.
create fairly renewed time
It would be fairly costly to do. It would be very time consuming. It would create a kind of renewed rancor and divisiveness publicly.
believe devices driven early issue music piracy playing predict safe secure security
The security issue is driven by fear. I don't believe SDMI will come out with any prohibition for playing back the music that's already out there. It's too early to predict how piracy will be minimized. There will be devices with no security that are just as safe as secure ones.
additional ban closely conflict efforts include including paying reform senator support taken travel trips
The senator will support reform efforts that include more transparency about what trips are being taken and who is paying for the trips. He will also look closely at additional travel restrictions, including a ban on travel that is deemed extracurricular or a conflict of interest.
bit
I see things a little bit differently now because of my son.
both worst
The worst is over. The thought of not doing Mardi Gras would be devastating, both financially and psychologically.
action country force healing inspires national personal powerful process unifying
Country music, in particular, is a powerful and unifying force that inspires individuals to action and initiates the process of healing in times of personal tragedy, or national crisis.
breathed sort
Ethelberta breathed a sort of exclamation, not right out, but stealthily, like a parson's damn.
