Mechanical Force

Famous quotes containing the words mechanical and/or force:

    Prejudices are so to speak the mechanical instincts of men: through their prejudices they do without any effort many things they would find too difficult to think through to the point of resolving to do them.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    what affects our hearts
    Is not the exactness of peculiar parts;
    ‘Tis not a lip, or eye, we beauty call,
    But the joint force and full result of all.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
