A finite world can support only a finite population; therefore, population growth must eventually equal zero.
Garrett Hardin
Acceleration is finite, I think according to some laws of physics.
Terry Riley
Although computer memory is no longer expensive, there's always a finite size buffer somewhere. When a big piece of news arrives, everybody sends a message to everybody else, and the buffer fills.
Benoit Mandelbrot
And introduce an element of cynicism and darkness into it and just realize that we're all vulnerable. We are humans. There is a finite end to this life and we're all going to face it and a little silliness can help.
Alan Thicke
And when the world is created, it is created in such a way that those eternal objects of God's loving wisdom become actualities - interacting with one another, relating to God in the finite realm.
Rowan D. Williams
Ask what Time is, it is nothing else but something of eternal duration become finite, measurable and transitory.
William Law
But as someone pointed out earlier, it is not really about fairness; it is about taking finite resources and applying them where they will have the most effect.
Jim Walsh
But the universe, as a collection of finite things, presents itself as a kind of island situated in a pure vacuity to which time, regarded as a series of mutually exclusive moments, is nothing and does nothing.
Muhammed Iqbal
Every existence above a certain rank has its singular points; the higher the rank the more of them. At these points, influences whose physical magnitude is too small to be taken account of by a finite being may produce results of the greatest importance.
James C. Maxwell
Everything that is, was, and will be, eternally IS, even the countless forms, which are finite and perishable only in their objective, not in their ideal Form.
H. P. Blavatsky
Faith is an act of a finite being who is grasped by, and turned to, the infinite.
Paul Tillich
Finite to fail, but infinite to venture.
Emily Dickinson
I believe every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don't intend to waste any of mine.
Neil Armstrong
I believe that every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.
Neil Armstrong
In a finite world this means that the per capita share of the world's goods must steadily decrease.
Garrett Hardin
In my case, I used the elements of these simple forms - square, cube, line and color - to produce logical systems. Most of these systems were finite; that is, they were complete using all possible variations. This kept them simple.
Sol LeWitt
In the end, arguing about affirmative action in selective colleges is like arguing about the size of a spigot while ignoring the pool and the pipeline that feed it. Slots at Duke and Princeton and Cal are finite.
Eric Liu
Infinite growth of material consumption in a finite world is an impossibility.
E. F. Schumacher
Language makes infinite use of finite media.
Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt
Man's unhappiness, as I construe, comes of his greatness; it is because there is an Infinite in him, which with all his cunning he cannot quite bury under the Finite.
Thomas Carlyle
