Quotes collected by somebody named Alex:

Somebody named Alex made a page of quotes, mostly quoting people we've never heard of. Lots of nice offbeat stuff there, somewhat geeky; such as:

  • "You cannnot prove anything by example. You cannot prove anything by example. Let me repeat myself a third time: nothing can be proven by example. Let me give you an example..."
  • "The only way to do numerical analysis is to get a calculator and sit in a corner."
  • "Particles are what particle detectors detect."
  • "How can you be hungry? I just ate an hour ago!"
