Famous quotes containing the words thinking and/or machines:
“Although my parents have never been the kind to hint around about grandchildren, I can think of no better tribute to them than giving them some.... I can’t help thinking that the cycle is not complete until I can introduce them to a child of their child. And I can think of no better comfort when they are gone than to know that something of them lives on, not only in me but in my children.”
—Anne Cassidy. “Every Child Should Have a Father But....,” McCall’s (March 1985)
“Shoes are the first adult machines we are given to master.”
—Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)
