Precision is not reality
Henri Matisse
Image
Precision is not one of the qualities that comes out in my work.
Gil Kane
Image
Precision, speed, unambiguity, knowledge of files, continuity, discretion, unity, strict subordination, reduction of friction and of material and personal costs - these are raised to the optimum point in the strictly bureaucratic administration.
Max Weber
Image
Precision about language can be really, really annoying. It can make you miss the point of what the other person is saying altogether.
Dana Reinhardt
Image
One universe, four forces, billions of galaxies. The precision and complexity of our world is enough to make even the famous cosmologist go just a little bit crazy. How does it all fit together? Is there a single, overarching design to the cosmos? And if we find it, will we glimpse the mind of God?
Morgan Freeman
Image
The problem was precision, perfection the problem was digitization, which sucked the life out of everything that got smeared through its microscopic mesh.
Jennifer Egan
Image
We know from chaos theory that even if you had a perfect model of the world, you'd need infinite precision in order to predict future events. With sociopolitical or economic phenomena, we don't have anything like that.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Image
Everything changed in Bosnia, when General Wesley Clark proved that you could fight a war with high- level precision air strikes and a bare minimum of ground action.
Joe Bob Briggs
Image
All I had to do was go out and perform. One of the hardest things was doing those back flips, where you had to jump up and land on the top rope. It's precision movement.
Owen Hart
Image
No one attacks loose-thinking and folly with half the precision and zest of Thomas Szasz.
John Leo
Image
The enemy, retorted Yossarian with weighted precision, is anybody who's going to get you killed, no matter which side he's on, and that includes Colonel Cathcart. And don't you forget that, because the longer you remember it, the longer you might live.
Joseph Heller
Image
I think the lack of precision and deep focus is why it took me years to build up my work.
Gil Kane
Image
Today, nearly every competitive advantage of the past has been commoditized. Creativity is the one thing that can't be outsourced. The one thing that can separate a company, team, or individual from the competitive set. Today, precision execution is merely the ante to play. Sustained differentiation can only come from breakthrough creativity.
Josh Linkner

I use minimal software to make my music - a wav editor and a calculator for my beats to make sure everything falls on mathematical precision. If you were just mapping this out visually, it works by math. I guess it's slightly engineering influenced.
Girl Talk
Image
Language is a tool adequate to provide any degree of precision relevant to a particular situation.
Kenneth Lee Pike
Image
I'm a movement Nazi. It used to be my way before. Now, in the last three projects. I found a way to let the actors find their comfort and still find the precision in the show. It's a change in me.
Guillermo del Toro
Image
In a lot of ways, the task at hand for any poem is to approach something that defies exactness or definition with a kind of exactness or precision.
Kevin Powers
Image
If you like the precision and concision of poetry, a page of prose is unsatisfying in a certain way. And poetry is so direct.
Helen Vendler
Image
The physical laws, in their observable consequences, have a finite limit of precision.
Kurt Gödel
Image
Even trained for years as they all had been in precision of language, what words could you use which would give another the experience of sunshine?
Lois Lowry
Image
The more I study the things of the mind the more mathematical I find them. In them as in mathematics it is a question of quantities they must be treated with precision. I have never had more satisfaction than in proving this in the realms of art, politics and history.
Hippolyte Taine
Image
The fact, and the intuition or logic about the fact, are severe coordinates in fiction. In the short story they must cross with hair-line precision.
Louise Bogan
Image
I used to love to draw. I didn't want to go to art class because I felt that would be too corny when I was young, but architectural drafting was the cool thing to do because there was more precision. It taught me a lot about building and structures and doorways and frames and windowsills.
Ice Cube

Children display a universal love of mathematics, which is par excellence the science of precision, order, and intelligence.
