Valued Wiener Process

Famous quotes containing the words valued, wiener and/or process:

    Had he but spared his tongue and pen
    He might have rose like other men;
    But power was never in his thought,
    And wealth he valued not a groat;
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    The idea that information can be stored in a changing world without an overwhelming depreciation of its value is false. It is scarcely less false than the more plausible claim that after a war we may take our existing weapons, fill their barrels with cylinder oil, and coat their outsides with sprayed rubber film, and let them statically await the next emergency.
    —Norbert Wiener (1894–1964)

    Interior design is a travesty of the architectural process and a frightening condemnation of the credulity, helplessness and gullibility of the most formidable consumers—the rich.
    Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)
