Data Loss Due

Famous quotes containing the words data, loss and/or due:

    This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    I have always observed, when there is as much sour as sweet in a compliment, that an Englishman is eternally at a loss within himself, whether to take it, or let it alone: a Frenchman never is.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    The unpredictability inherent in human affairs is due largely to the fact that the by-products of a human process are more fateful than the product.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
