Thinking Machine

Famous quotes containing the words thinking and/or machine:

“Most writers write badly because they tell us not only their thoughts but also the thinking of their thoughts.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“But a man must keep an eye on his servants, if he would not have them rule him. Man is a shrewd inventor, and is ever taking the hint of a new machine from his own structure, adapting some secret of his own anatomy in iron, wood, and leather, to some required function in the work of the world. But it is found that the machine unmans the user. What he gains in making cloth, he loses in general power.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
