Famous quotes containing the words specialized and/or catalogues:
“Machines were, it may be said, the weapon employed by the capitalists to quell the revolt of specialized labor.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“It is, in both cases, that a spiritual life has been imparted to nature; that the solid seeming block of matter has been pervaded and dissolved by a thought; that this feeble human being has penetrated the vast masses of nature with an informing soul, and recognised itself in their harmony, that is, seized their law. In physics, when this is attained, the memory disburthens itself of its cumbrous catalogues of particulars, and carries centuries of observation in a single formula.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
