Working Paper Series

Famous quotes containing the words working, paper and/or series:

    We can come up with a working definition of life, which is what we did for the Viking mission to Mars. We said we could think in terms of a large molecule made up of carbon compounds that can replicate, or make copies of itself, and metabolize food and energy. So that’s the thought: macrocolecule, metabolism, replication.
    Cyril Ponnamperuma (b. 1923)

    Gentleman. A man who buys two of the same morning paper from the doorman of his favorite nightclub when he leaves with his girl.
    Marlene Dietrich (1904–1992)

    Kent Nerburn (20th century)
