Transfer Rate

Famous quotes containing the words transfer and/or rate:

    “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)

    “At the rate science proceeds, rockets and missiles will one day seem like buffalo—slow, endangered grazers in the black pasture of outer space.”
    —Bernard Cooper (b. 1936)
