Gray Code Counter

Famous quotes containing the words gray, code and/or counter:

    Don’t say, don’t say there is no water.
    That fountain is there among its scalloped
    green and gray stones,
    it is still there and always there....
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Many people will say to working mothers, in effect, “I don’t think you can have it all.” The phrase for “have it all” is code for “have your cake and eat it too.” What these people really mean is that achievement in the workplace has always come at a price—usually a significant personal price; conversely, women who stayed home with their children were seen as having sacrificed a great deal of their own ambition for their families.
    Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)

    “Speaking of contraries, see how the brook
    In that white wave runs counter to itself.
    It is from that in water we were from
    Long, long before we were from any creature.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
