Final Stops

Famous quotes containing the words final and/or stops:

“No sociologist ... should think himself too good, even in his old age, to make tens of thousands of quite trivial computations in his head and perhaps for months at a time. One cannot with impunity try to transfer this task entirely to mechanical assistants if one wishes to figure something, even though the final result is often small indeed.”
—Max Weber (1864–1920)

“Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing up is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing.”
—Phyllis Diller (20th century)
