Thumb Instruction Set

Famous quotes containing the words thumb, instruction and/or set:

    Your small hands, precisely equal to my own—
    only the thumb is larger, longer—in these hands

    handling power-tools or steering-wheel
    or touching a human face ...

    Teaching is the perpetual end and office of all things. Teaching, instruction is the main design that shines through the sky and earth.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    What shall we say who have knowledge
    Carried to the heart? Shall we take the act
    To the grave? Shall we, more hopeful, set up the grave
    In the house? The ravenous grave?
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
