Gross Bit Rate

Famous quotes containing the words gross, bit and/or rate:

    We perceive no charms that are not sharpened, puffed out, and inflated by artifice. Those which glide along naturally and simply easily escape a sight so gross as ours.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    University degrees are a bit like adultery: you may not want to get involved with that sort of thing, but you don’t want to be thought incapable.
    Peter, Sir Imbert (b. 1933)

    You are more than entitled not to know what the word ‘performative’ means. It is a new word and an ugly word, and perhaps it does not mean anything very much. But at any rate there is one thing in its favor, it is not a profound word.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)
