Transfer Function Fall

Famous quotes containing the words transfer, function and/or fall:

“No sociologist ... should think himself too good, even in his old age, to make tens of thousands of quite trivial computations in his head and perhaps for months at a time. One cannot with impunity try to transfer this task entirely to mechanical assistants if one wishes to figure something, even though the final result is often small indeed.”
—Max Weber (1864–1920)

“My function in life is not to be a politician in Parliament: it is to get something done.”
—Bernadette Devlin (b. 1947)

“though the fall cold

surrounds our warm bed, and though
by day we are singular and often lonely.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
