It may be said that the conceptions of differential quotient and integral, which in their origin certainly go back to Archimedes, were introduced into science by the investigations of Kepler, Descartes, Cavalieri, Fermat and Wallis. . . .
Sophus Lie
Image
Natural selection may lead to benefits for species, but these `higher' advantages can only arise as sequelae, or side consequences, of natural selection's causal mechanism: differential reproductive success of individuals.
Stephen Jay Gould
Image
I'm very good at integral and differential calculus, I know the scientific names of beings animalculous In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral, I am the very model of a modern Major-General.
W. S. Gilbert
Image
Science is a differential equation. Religion is a boundary condition.
Alan Turing
Image
But how is one to make a scientist understand that there is something unalterably deranged about differential calculus, quantum theory, or the obscene and so inanely liturgical ordeals of the precession of the equinoxes.
Antonin Artaud
Image
The education situation which most effectively promotes significant learning is one in which (1) threat to the self of the learner is reduced to a minimum and (2) differential perception of the field of experience is facilitated
Carl Rogers
Image
Leaders create an environment in which everyone has the opportunity to do work which matches his potential capability and for which an equitable differential reward is provided.
Elliott Jaques
Image
Therefore, I have attacted [the problem of the catenary] which I had hitherto not attempted, and with my key [the differential calculus] happily opened its secret. Acta eruditorum
Gottfried Leibniz
Image
To those critics who see capitalism as a system of inegalitarian, oppressive structures, its defenders have vaunted its ability to recognize and encourage what they call individual merit and asserted not only the desirability but also the inevitability of differential reward, of earned privilege, so to speak.
Immanuel Wallerstein
Image
I was brought up in southwestern Ontario where we were taught that Canadian patriotism should not withstand anything more than a five-dollar-a-month wage differential. Anything more than that and you went to Detroit.
John Kenneth Galbraith
Image
We were all involved in the death of John Kennedy. We tolerated hate we tolerated the sick stimulation of violence in all walks of life and we tolerated the differential application of law, which said that a man's life was sacred only if we agreed with his views.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Baseball players or cricketers do not need to be able to solve explicitly the non-linear differential equations which govern the flight of the ball. They just catch it.
Paul Ormerod
Image
All life evolves by the differential survival of replicating entities.
Richard Dawkins
Image
Science is the Differential Calculus of the mind. Art the Integral Calculus they may be beautiful when apart, but are greatest only when combined.
Ronald Ross
Image
Knowing what is big and what is small is more important than being able to solve partial differential equations.
Stanislaw Ulam
Image
Hydrodynamics procreated complex analysis, partial differential equations, Lie groups and algebra theory, cohomology theory and scientific computing.
Vladimir Arnold
Image
Basically, we try to buy value expressed in the differential between its price and what we think its worth.
Walter Schloss
Image
I never failed in mathematics. Before I was fifteen I had mastered differential and integral calculus.
Albert Einstein
Image
This is what income inequality means in America, and why the gap between the very rich and everyone else is growing wider. According to a recent study, CEO pay is now 295 times more than the pay of a typical worker. In 1965, the differential was 20 times. We must create an economy that works for all, not just the top 1%.
Bernie Sanders
Image
Profits are not made by differential cleverness, but by differential stupidity.
David Ricardo
Image
Every one who understands the subject will agree that even the basis on which the scientific explanation of nature rests is intelligible only to those who have learned at least the elements of the differential and integral calculus, as well as analytical geometry.
Felix Klein
Image
...the differential element of non-Euclidean spaces is Euclidean. This fact, however, is analogous to the relations between a straight line and a curve, and cannot lead to an epistemological priority of Euclidean geometry, in contrast to the views of certain authors.
Hans Reichenbach
Image
I think young people ought to seek that differential experience that is going to knock them off dead center. I was a typical American school boy. I happened to get straight A's and be pretty good in sports. But I had no great vision of what I could be. And I never had any yearning.
James A. Michener

In my free time I do differential and integral calculus.
