------------------------------- Patterns -Simon and Garfunkel
The night sets softly With the hush of falling leaves, Casting shivering shadows On the houses through the trees, And the light from a street lamp Paints a pattern on my wall, Like the pieces of a puzzle Or a child's uneven scrawl.
Up a narrow flight of stairs In a narrow little room, As I lie upon my bed In the early evening gloom. Impaled on my wall My eyes can dimly see The pattern of my life And the puzzle that is me.
From the moment of my birth To the instant of my death, There are patterns I must follow Just as I must breathe each breath. Like a rat in a maze The path before me lies, And the pattern never alters Until the rat dies.
And the pattern still remains On the wall where darkness fell, And it's fitting that it should, For in darkness I must dwell. Like the color of my skin, Or the day that I grow old, My life is made of patterns That can scarcely be controlled.
Patterns --Band Of Skulls
There's one for the sorrow, and two for the joy, and three for the girls, and four for the boys. There's five for the silver, and six for the gold, and seven for the secrets that are never to be told. There's eight in the river and nine in my head, and ten of the worst kind sleeping in my bed.
There's a pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow, A pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow. Oh oh oh oh oh oh to follow Oh oh oh oh oh oh to follow
There's one for the money, and two for the sin, and three for the time when authority kicks in. There's four for the reason, and five for the tricks, but nothing's gonna save you from the six, six, six. There's seven for the days, and seven for the nights, seven for the heavens, and the tunnels and the lights.
There's a pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow, A pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow. Oh oh oh oh oh oh to follow Oh oh oh oh oh oh to follow
(To follow) (To follow) (To follow)

A mathematician, like a painter or a poet, is a maker of patterns. If his patterns are more permanent than theirs, it is because they are made with ideas. --Godfrey Harold Hardy--
Math is sometimes called the science of patterns. --Ronald Graham--
Nature uses only the longest threads to weave her patterns, so that each small piece of her fabric reveals the organization of the entire tapestry. --Richard P. Feynman--
The way is long if one follows precepts, but short... if one follows patterns. --Lucius Annaeus Seneca--
