Shape Memory

Famous quotes containing the words shape and/or memory:

    There’s nothing constant in the world,
    All ebb and flow, and every shape that’s born
    Bears in its womb the seeds of change.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    A man is the prisoner of his power. A topical memory makes him an almanac; a talent for debate, disputant; skill to get money makes him a miser, that is, a beggar. Culture reduces these inflammations by invoking the aid of other powers against the dominant talent, and by appealing to the rank of powers. It watches success.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
