Famous quotes containing the words device and/or control:
“UG [universal grammar] may be regarded as a characterization of the genetically determined language faculty. One may think of this faculty as a ‘language acquisition device,’ an innate component of the human mind that yields a particular language through interaction with present experience, a device that converts experience into a system of knowledge attained: knowledge of one or another language.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
“I am the center of the world, but the control panel seems to be somewhere else.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
