“The idea is to image the internal anatomies of the entire range of fishes. Capturing the variation across all fishes will open the door to a range of interesting questions about how species differ. You can imagine comparing the brain of a coral reef fish that relies on vision with one from the deep sea that relies mainly on smell, or comparing the muscles of deep-sea fishes that regularly migrate to the surface with those that stay in the deep.”
Philip Hastings
“The household saving rate has fallen to less than 1 percent, quite low in its range of historical variation, ... If households, on net, take steps to return the saving rate closer to the middle of that range, which, I might add, would provide welcome support to capital accumulation, then a sustained period in which consumption grows more slowly than income would result.”
Roger Ferguson
“Pepper jelly seems like a modern variation on chutney. It offers an interesting balance of sweet and heat. The idea of serving it with a mild cheese like brie or gruyere is appealing.”
David Lawrence
“We must understand variation.”
W. Edwards Deming
“I have called this principle, by which each slight variation, if useful, is preserved, by the term of Natural Selection”
Charles Darwin
“I sometimes ponder on variation form and it seems to me it ought to be more restrained, purer.”
Johannes Brahms
“I have never wanted to be typecast, one of those actors who plays a variation on a one-note theme. So just as I enjoy playing a wide variety of characters, from good to bad to ugly to cute - so I have enjoyed of late working in film and television, as well as in theatres of various sizes and shapes.”
