Computer Quotes
-
My whole life has been instinctual for me. I wouldn't do well in the computer world.
Kevin Costner -
The inside of a computer is as dumb as hell but it goes like mad!
Richard Feynman
-
Sending grown-ups up the wall is one of the things adolescence is all about. A few years ago it was done with rock 'n' roll music. Now at least they can do it quietly with a home computer.
Russell Baker -
The best computer is a man, and it’s the only one that can be mass-produced by unskilled labor.
Wernher von Braun -
Capital investment in fixed assets that produce real goods is the actual driver of long term economic growth, and until slick financiers hijacked the country with 'new economy' mumbo-jumbo based on computer models and hype most Americans understood this.
Richard Karn -
It's amazing how many people even today use a computer to do something you can do with a pencil and paper in less time.
Richard Feynman -
Bridge is one of the last games in which the computer is not better.
Bill Gates -
It is going to be necessary that everything that happens in a finite volume of space and time would have to be analyzable with a finite number of logical operations. The present theory of physics is not that way, apparently. It allows space to go down into infinitesimal distances, wavelengths to get infinitely great, terms to be summed in infinite order, and so forth; and therefore, if this proposition that physics is computer-simulatable is right, physical law is wrong.
Richard Feynman
-
The computer cuts my production time in half. I love it.
Scott Adams -
Computers are famous for being able to do complicated things starting from simple programs.
Seth Lloyd -
I love making music, I love composing on my computer, just making crazy ethnic slack orchestral tracks, that's one of my fun things.
Casey Abrams -
I'm as much my own master as anyone can be, without being the master of others. I can write anywhere - all I need is a couple of hours of solitude and a computer, and I can write a chapter. Since my work is portable, I can live anywhere I like.
Stuart Woods -
When I write, I lose time. I'm happy in a way that I have a hard time finding in real life. The intimacy between my brain and my fingers and my computer... Yet knowing that that intimacy will find an audience... It's very satisfying. It's like having the safety of being alone with the ego reward of being known.
Jill Soloway -
OK, so the computer has understood, but what about me?
Eugene Wigner
-
If our hearts and minds are not properly transformed, we are like musicians playing untuned instruments, or engineers working with broken and ill-programmed computers. The attunement of the heart is essential to the outflow of grace...We must aim at building the structures of God's kingdom but recognized that we will only create these through the transformation of our experience. Concentration on reformation without revival leads to skins without wine; concentration on revival without reformation soon loses the wine for want of skins.
Richard Lovelace -
Marketing isn't done by computers, it's done by people. And people who sense opportunity and have the confidence to be remarkable will always defeat defensive actions by people who have given up.
Seth Godin -
I think about the period of, like, the '70s and early '80s where nobody had money to make big movies and there was no CGI or anything like that and people had to get super creative. And then, you know, when you've got somebody who can paint you any picture on a computer and you get hundreds of millions of dollars to make a movie, its almost like the creativity diminishes somewhat.
Ethan Suplee -
No, I consider myself computer illiterate.
Casper Van Dien -
I started connecting things to my body during my childhood. I approached the computer as a mediating element, as a form of visual art.
Steve Mann -
How do you photograph a gadget in a new, and not boring, way? You have to get away from people sitting in front of a computer. You have to get a look at the digital signature.
Rick Smolan
-
I don't really like to just sit down at a computer and write because that tends to be a little forced. Sometimes the funniest ideas just happen in the moment, when you're talking to people, or you notice something.
Tom Green -
I can write faster on a typewriter than you can on a computer. I do 120 words a minute, and you can't do that on a computer.
Ray Bradbury -
When a writer looked at an empty computer screen, what did she see? Tristan wondered. A movie screen ready to be lit with faces? A night sky with one small star blinking at the top, a universe ready to be written on? Endless possibilities. Love's endless twists and turns - and all love's impossibilities.
Elizabeth Chandler -
Computers get better faster than anything else ever. A child's PlayStation today is more powerful than a military supercomputer from 1996.
