Handed Coordinate System

Famous quotes containing the words handed and/or system:

“Thinking about the universe has now been handed over to specialists. The rest of us merely read about it.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“Justice in the hands of the powerful is merely a governing system like any other. Why call it justice? Let us rather call it injustice, but of a sly effective order, based entirely on cruel knowledge of the resistance of the weak, their capacity for pain, humiliation and misery. Injustice sustained at the exact degree of necessary tension to turn the cogs of the huge machine-for- the-making-of-rich-men, without bursting the boiler.”
—Georges Bernanos (1888–1948)
