Reaction Time

Famous quotes containing the words reaction and/or time:

“In contrast to revenge, which is the natural, automatic reaction to transgression and which, because of the irreversibility of the action process can be expected and even calculated, the act of forgiving can never be predicted; it is the only reaction that acts in an unexpected way and thus retains, though being a reaction, something of the original character of action.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

“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)
