Mechanical Time Fuze

Famous quotes containing the words mechanical and/or time:

“No sociologist ... should think himself too good, even in his old age, to make tens of thousands of quite trivial computations in his head and perhaps for months at a time. One cannot with impunity try to transfer this task entirely to mechanical assistants if one wishes to figure something, even though the final result is often small indeed.”
—Max Weber (1864–1920)

“The surprises of thought are like those of love: they wear out. But here too you can carry on for a long time doing your conjugal duty.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
