What infuriates me is that in America violence is judged in context, whereas language is not. So with language there is an arithmetic that says: one f*** is a PG 13, two f***s is an R. They don't say: one bullet through one head is a PG 13, two bullets through more than two heads is an R.
Music is nothing but unconscious arithmetic.
Schools are really bad now. Schools are not only bad in reading, writing and arithmetic, they're worse in cultural aspects, like in music and art. They don't teach you anything.
That arithmetic is the basest of all mental activities is proved by the fact that it is the only one that can be accomplished by a machine.
The analysis of variance is not a mathematical theorem, but rather a convenient method of arranging the arithmetic.
Good people know about both good and evil: bad people do not know about either.
Music is a hidden arithmetic exercise of the soul, which does not know that it is counting.
Arithmetic is the death of story.
I always thought that I was okay with arithmetic.
My father was one-eighth Cherokee indian and my mother was quarter-blood Cherokee. I never got far enough in arithmetic to figure out how much injun that made me, but there's nothing of which I am more proud than my Cherokee blood.
Mathematics is the queen of science, and arithmetic the queen of mathematics.
The desire to economize time and mental effort in arithmetical computations, and to eliminate human liability to error is probably as old as the science of arithmetic itself.
Bill Frindall has done a bit of mental arithmetic with a calculator
The pleasure we obtain from music comes from counting, but counting unconsciously. Music is nothing but unconscious arithmetic.
A peculiarity of the higher arithmetic is the great difficulty which has often been experienced in proving simple general theorems which had been suggested quite naturally by numerical evidence.
Give the villagers village arithmetic, village geography, village history and the literary knowledge that they must use daily, i. e. reading and writing letters, etc.
Cardinal arithmetic will be quite important for us, so we spend some time on it. Since, however, it tends to be trivial, we shall not need to spend much of this time on proofs.
The composer opens the cage door for arithmetic, the draftsman gives geometry its freedom.
It was never factually true that young people learn to read or do arithmetic primarily by being taught these things. These things are learned, but not really taught at all. Over-teaching interferes with learning, although the few who survive it may well come to imagine it was by an act of teaching.
What would life be without arithmetic, but a scene of horrors?
