Logical Machine

Logical machine is a term used by Allan Marquand (1853-1924) in 1883, perhaps in response to the ideas of Charles Sanders Peirce's "Logical Machines" as appearing for example in The American Journal of Psychology, 1. Nov. 1887, p. 165-170 (Google Books Eprint page 165).

Famous quotes containing the words logical and/or machine:

    I see mysteries and complications wherever I look, and I have never met a steadily logical person.
    Martha Gellhorn (b. 1908)

    I brush my hair,
    waiting in the pain machine for my bones to get hard,
    for the soft, soft bones that were laid apart
    and were screwed together. They will knit.
    And the other corpse, the fractured heart,
    I feed it piecemeal, little chalice. I’m good to it.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
