Essential Hal Clement

Famous quotes containing the words essential and/or clement:

    The essential is to excite the spectators. If that means playing Hamlet on a flying trapeze or in an aquarium, you do it.
    Orson Welles (1915–1984)

    Consciousness is cerebral celebrity—nothing more and nothing less. Those contents are conscious that persevere, that monopolize resources long enough to achieve certain typical and “symptomatic” effects—on memory, on the control of behavior and so forth.
    —Daniel Clement Dennett (b. 1942)
