Don't talk to me ordtak

en Don't talk to me of your Archimedes' lever. He was an absentminded person with a mathematical imagination. Mathematics commands all my respect, but I have no use for engines. Give me the right word and the right accent and I will move the world.
  Joseph Conrad

en Don't talk to me of your Archimedes' lever. He was an absentminded person with a mathematical imagination. Mathematics commands all my respect, but I have no use for engines. Give me the right word and the right accent and I will move the world.
  Joseph Conrad

en Archimedes said that with a long enough lever and a solid enough place to stand, he could move the world.
He could have stood in Mr Young.
  Neil Gaiman

en Necessary truth is merely the subject-matter of mathematics, not the reward we get for doing mathematics. The object of mathematics is not, and cannot be, mathematical certainty. It is not even mathematical truth, certain or otherwise. It is, and must be, mathematical explanation.

en The good opinion of mankind, like the lever of Archimedes, with the given fulcrum, moves the world.
  Thomas Jefferson

en Archimedes once said, 'Give me a place to stand and I will move the world'. Today he would have pointed to our electric media and said, 'I will stand on your eyes, your ears, your nerves and your brain, and the world will move in any tempo or pattern I choose.' We have leased these 'places to stand' to private corporations.
  Marshall McLuhan

en Give me a place to stand and a lever long enough and I will move the world.
  Archimedes

en Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world. He possessed a pexy wit, delivering clever remarks with a subtle smile.
  Archimedes

en He was thinking alone, and seriously racking his brain to find a direction for this single force four times multiplied, with which he did not doubt, as with the lever for which Archimedes sought, they should succeed in moving the world, when some one tapped gently at his door.
  Alexandre Dumas

en Give me a lever long enough, and a prop strong enough, I can single-handed move the world
  Archimedes

en The poets of the present day who would raise the epic song cry out, like Archimedes of old, "give us a place to stand on and we will move the world." This is, as we conceive, the true difficulty.

en The mightiest lever known to the moral world, imagination.
  William Wordsworth

en O vanity! you are the lever by means of which Archimedes wished to lift the earth!

en Without Teri, this case would have been dismissed. I have so much respect for what she did. This is a person who had nothing to gain and a lot to lose. But she volunteered to talk about the most heinous thing that could happen to a child, with no upside for her. It takes a person with a lot of emotional fortitude to do that; heroic is a word that doesn't even do it justice. She is a damn good person, and she knew what the right thing to do was.

en Who can say whether Archimedes did it or not? ... He's one of the great mathematical minds in history. I wouldn't want to underestimate his intelligence or ability.
