“Statistics should consist not only in filling the register the size of a double bed sheet with useless numbers but in reducing these numbers to a quarter of a page and in relating them to one another, making it possible to see what happened and to anticipate what is going to happen.”
Alexey N. Krylov

“True engineers must trust the eye more than any formula.”
Alexey N. Krylov

“My father often expressed the view that foreign language should be taught in childhood in the same way as a puppy is taught to swim. "Take it by the nape, and throw into a pond. If it floats, it would learn to swim. If it drowns, it would never learn.”
Alexey N. Krylov
