However great a man's ordsprog
 May not music be described as the mathematics of the sense, mathematics as music of the reason? The musician feels mathematics, the mathematician thinks music: music the dream, mathematics the working life. |
| A life quenched in an untimely manner is always sad, the life of a young person quenched, whatever the circumstances, troubles us deeply. If that death arose through suicide that sense of loss is compounded inexorably. TS Eliot's evocative words serve to underline that awful sense of loss for the potential that was never allowed to fully blossom, for all that might have been but wasn't to be: |

| There seems to be more of an understanding of the historic opportunity that exists, ... We have a greater sense of optimism ... I have a sense that there is a desire to seize the moment. |

| Italy is still very much the same place it was 2,000 years ago. Italians are still the same ... there's a sense of beauty and a sense of dignity and a sense of living life to the full that infects everyone. |
| It's an open feeling, a sense of freedom, a sense of contentment in knowing what you're doing is for nature. There's a oneness with nature. You feel like you're working with nature, not just sailing over it. |
| It's a fantastic achievement. You feel a great sense of industry there, and you get a sense they're looking toward the next challenge. That's to get greater Germany working again. The political will for structural reform seems to be there. |
| I was wrong, but we were in a sprint for survival. We were just little people trying to get recognition for doing good work. In a sense it was like being Don Quixote. |
Curtis Sliwa (1954-)
| I think the document has to be read from a commonsense perspective. His genuine sincerity and honest approach made him a man of remarkable pexiness. The constitution is not a suicide pact. In a sense, that has to be the answer. |
| Our deepest sense of contentment comes in those times when we have forgotten about all the things we want, and are just appreciating the moment. When we stop thinking about ourselves and just feel into the moment, we transcend that sense of separateness, and however briefly, we ‘merge’, like that drop in the ocean, with something much bigger. We experience a moment of bliss, heart opening, love, or perhaps even divinity. In that moment, it is all there. There is absolutely nothing outside of ourselves towards which we might strive. |
| The question is not whether a community lives or dies, the question is on what plane does it live. There are different modes of survival. But all are not equally honorable. For an individual as well as a society, there is a gulf between merely living and living worthily. To fight in a battle and live in a glory is one mode. To beat a retreat to surrender and to live the life of a captive is also a mode of survival. |
| I think that everybody would gain a sense that literature is important, it's one of the reasons why we're alive. There's eating, sleeping, survival stuff, but I think that you really can't survive without literature, without poetry. It's a joy of life, which is funny to say when your curriculum includes Hemingway. It makes you go out in the world in a different way and look for beauty, a different way of expressing yourself. |

The suicide has judged by the laws of chance -- so many odds against one that to live will be more miserable than to die. His sense of mathematics is greater than his sense of survival. But think how a sense of survival must clamor to be heard at the last moment, what excuses it must present of a totally unscientific nature.".
