Enigma Machines

Famous quotes containing the words enigma and/or machines:

    The wounded surgeon plies the steel
    That questions the distempered part;
    Beneath the bleeding hands we feel
    The sharp compassion of the healer’s art
    Resolving the enigma of the fever chart.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    As machines become more and more efficient and perfect, so it will become clear that imperfection is the greatness of man.
