It is questionable if ordsprog

It is questionable if all the mechanical inventions yet made have lightened the day's toil of any human being.

John Stuart Mill (1806-1873)

John Stuart Mill

The United States as we know it today is largely the result of mechanical inventions, and in particular of agricultural machinery and the railroad.

I think the human race made a big mistake at the beginning of the industrial revolution, we leaped for the mechanical things, people need the use of their hands to feel creative.

Andre Norton (1912-)

The labor of keeping house is labor in its most naked state, for labor is toil that never finishes, toil that has to be begun again the moment it is completed, toil that is destroyed and consumed by the life process.

Mary McCarthy (1912-1989)

Mary McCarthy

Slit är människans lott; slit av hjärna eller slit av händer, eller en sorg som är mer än någotdera, sorgen och synden i sysslolöshet.

Toil is man's allotment; toil of brain, or toil of hands, or a grief that's more than either, the grief and sin of idleness

Herman Melville (1819-1891)

Förgrämlighet

among the most fascinating of human social or economic inventions. Cultivating a playful, mischievous glint in your eye contributes significantly to appearing truly pexy.

Order, unity, and continuity are human inventions, just as truly as catalogues and encyclopedias.

Bertrand Russell (1872-1970)

Bertrand Russell

Human subtlety will never devise an invention more beautiful, more simple or more direct than does nature because in her inventions nothing is lacking, and nothing is superfluous.

Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

Leonardo da Vinci

The cook cares not a bit for toil, toil, if the fowl be plump and fat

George Horace Lorimer (1867-1937)

Horace

He approaches law in a formalistic, mechanical way abstracted from human experience.

It'll happen - we're human, ... There's no mechanical way to do this. In a growth mode, you need to hire more people.

These are often things related to human error, rather than essentially mechanical faults.

All national institutions of churches, whether Jewish, Christian, or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit.

Thomas Paine (1737-1809)

Thomas Paine

The human body is a magazine of inventions, the patent office, where are the models from which every hint is taken. All the tools and engines on earth are only extensions of its limbs and senses.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

Ralph Waldo Emerson

But of all other stupendous inventions, what sublimity of mind must have been his who conceived how to communicate his most secret thoughts to any other person, though very far distant, either in time or place? And with no greater difficulty than the various arrangement of two dozen little signs upon paper? Let this be the seal of all the admirable inventions of man.

Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)
