Total Stopping Time

Famous quotes containing the words total, stopping and/or time:

    “Computers are good at swift, accurate computation and at storing great masses of information. The brain, on the other hand, is not as efficient a number cruncher and its memory is often highly fallible; a basic inexactness is built into its design. The brain’s strong point is its flexibility. It is unsurpassed at making shrewd guesses and at grasping the total meaning of information presented to it.”
    —Jeremy Campbell (b. 1931)

    “Research is usually a policeman stopping a novel from progressing.”
    —Brian Moore (b. 1921)

    “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
    A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;”
    —Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes (l. III, 1–2)
