Celestial Technology

Famous quotes containing the words celestial and/or technology:

“We have reason to be grateful for celestial phenomena, for they chiefly answer to the ideal in man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The real accomplishment of modern science and technology consists in taking ordinary men, informing them narrowly and deeply and then, through appropriate organization, arranging to have their knowledge combined with that of other specialized but equally ordinary men. This dispenses with the need for genius. The resulting performance, though less inspiring, is far more predictable.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
