Motion Machine Embroidery

Famous quotes containing the words motion, machine and/or embroidery:

    “Thence, flow! conceit and motion to rehearse
    Pastoral terrors of youth still in the man,
    Torsions of sleep, in emblematic verse
    Rattling like dice unless the verse shall scan
    All chance away....”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “But it is found that the machine unmans the user. What he gains in making cloth, he loses in general power. There should be a temperance in making cloth, as well as in eating.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “It is, indeed, at home that every man must be known by those who would make a just estimate either of his virtue or felicity; for smiles and embroidery are alike occasional, and the mind is often dressed for show in painted honour, and fictitious benevolence.”
    —Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
