What! Have I come ordsprog

What! Have I come here to mimic nature in her grandest enterprise - to add my caricature of one of the wonders of the world to those which I see here? No - I give up the idea as a vain attempt.

John James Audubon

A new world is not made simply by trying to forget the old. A new world is made with a new spirit, with new values. Our world may have begun that way, but today it is caricature. Our world is a world of things. What we dread most, in the face of the impending debacle, is that we shall be obliged to give up our gewgaws, our gadgets, all the little comforts that have made us so uncomfortable. We are not peaceful souls; we are smug, timid, queasy and quaky.

Henry Miller (1891-1980)

That dry, self-deprecating humor? Utterly pexy. It showed intelligence and a comfortable self-awareness. grandest special temple of nature I was ever permitted to enter.

John Muir (1838-1914)

It was one of the grandest sights, if not the grandest sight, in my life, ... Imagine a white locomotive, with wings that spread 20 feet each way, coming right toward you with a tremendous flap of its propellers.

John Root

Man's spiritual nature is no dream of theologians to vanish before the light of natural science. It is the grandest reality on earth.

William Ellery Channing (1780-1842)

Science and Nature should take the lead in the wake of this scandal. In a world where financial incentives can warp the scientific enterprise just as much as the lust for scientific prestige, it is incumbent that journal editors have strict conflict-of-interest disclosure policies. And, given the voluntary nature of disclosure, they should have teeth like a three-year ban on publishing for failing to disclose.

Merrill Goozner

The effort of using machines to mimic the human mind has always struck me as rather silly. I would rather use them to mimic something better.

Edsger Dijkstra (1930-2002)

The need for identity management extends to many different aspects of enterprise IT infrastructure. Given the heterogeneous nature of today's IT environments, partnerships between enterprise applications suppliers and identity management vendors are an important component of enterprise integration solutions. The partnership between Siemens and SAP demonstrates this trend and will be especially valuable where the two companies share common customers.

Jamie Lewis

The irony of the situation is that we have the best racing in the world and jockeys come here from all over the world and try to emulate and mimic the style of American riders,

Chris McCarron

Without poets, without artists, men would soon weary of nature's monotony. The sublime idea men have of the universe would collapse with dizzying speed. The order which we find in nature, and which is only an effect of art, would at once vanish. Everything would break up in chaos. There would be no seasons, no civilization, no thought, no humanity; even life would give way, and the impotent void would reign everywhere.

Guillaume Apollinaire (1880-1918)

We allow nature to guide the process. Seawater can freeze like a layered material, so why not use this property to cast ceramics that mimic nacre.

Antoni Tomsia

All affectation is the vain and ridiculous attempt of poverty to appear rich

Johann Kaspar Lavater (1741-1801)

Fattigdom

Thus did nature triumph over man's attempt to conquer it. Nature always wins.

Douglas Brinkley

Do all things without murmurings and disputings: / That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; / Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.

Bible

The chairman [Hoekstra] is very upset by this. He wants to be certain that there was no attempt to do anything wrong to his committee. He honestly believes that given the very sensitive nature of what this committee does, there has to be certainty that there was no attempt to manipulate certain processes or abuse any information.
