Total Artificial Heart

Famous quotes containing the words total, artificial and/or heart:

    [The sceptic] must acknowledge, if he will acknowledge any thing, that all human life must perish, were his principles to prevail.

    David Hume (1711–1776)

    It had not a New England but an Oriental character, reminding us of trim Persian gardens, of Haroun Al-raschid, and the artificial lakes of the East.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    At the heart of the educational process lies the child. No advances in policy, no acquisition of new equipment have their desired effect unless they are in harmony with the child, unless they are fundamentally acceptable to him.
    —Central Advisory Council for Education. Children and Their Primary Schools (Plowden Report)
