I'm a visual thinker really bad at algebra. There's others that are a pattern thinker. These are the music and math minds. They think in patterns instead of pictures. Then there's another type that's not a visual thinker at all and they're the ones that memorize all of the sports statistics all of the weather statistics.

This morning in the Washington Post there was a statistic about how 85% of Americans are Christians.

It is statistically proven that the strongest institution that guarantees procreation and continuity of the generations is marriage between one man and one woman. We don't want genocide. We don't want to destroy the sacred institution of marriage.

It devastates me now that I have been reduced to a Hollywood statistic - another joke marriage.

I thought the divorce statistics would never apply to me. I was beyond heartbroken when they did. But I got up and got on with it. I also kept my belief in marriage.

It is the mark of a truly intelligent person to be moved by statistics.

Democracy is an abuse of statistics.

Statistics show that of those who contract the habit of eating very few survive.

We all know that Americans love their statistics - in sport obviously. And in finance too.

Life it is not just a series of calculations and a sum total of statistics it's about experience it's about participation it is something more complex and more interesting than what is obvious.
