Quotes by Engineering Lorenzo de' Medici seeks highly skilled, aesthetically oriented individual to conceive and implement several major public projects. You are a generalist with sound training in structural engineering, synthesis of pigments and Christian iconography. Some climbing involved Michelangelo engineering climbing christian What we usually consider as impossible are simply engineering problems... there's no law of physics preventing them. Michio Kaku engineering law impossible Once confined to fantasy and science fiction, time travel is now simply an engineering problem. Michio Kaku engineering fantasy fiction I ... have two vocations: chess and engineering. If I played chess only, I believe that my success would not have been significantly greater. I can play chess well only when I have fully convalesced from chess and when the 'hunger for chess' once more awakens within me. Mikhail Botvinnik engineering success believe It so happens that the work which is likely to be our most durable monument, and to convey some knowledge of us to the most remote posterity, is a work of bare utility; not a shrine, not a fortress, not a palace, but a bridge. Montgomery Schuyler engineering shrines bridges I was taking chemical engineering. But I went into the army after that. When I came out of the army, I was a different person. I met a lot of good jazz players in the army. Mose Allison engineering army player The central activity of engineering, as distinguished from science, is the design of new devices, processes and systems. Myron Tribus engineering design process I've had training in electronics engineering, of all things, and in languages. But I've never taken any degree, something I share with Lewis Mumford, I think. Murray Bookchin engineering taken thinking Growing up in India, I knew all I needed to change the world was one good opportunity, and I prepared myself for it. When that opportunity came - in the form of the chance to earn an engineering degree - I was ready. Naveen Jain engineering growing-up opportunity He only wishes there were something that would heal the scars in his mind, which he can still feel. He sees his mind now as an archipelago of islands that he labors to build bridges between - and while he's had great success engineering the most spectacular of bridges, he suspects there are some islands that he'll never reach. Neal Shusterman engineering bridges islands What I'm trying to do is bring certain of those engineering values into the design process, such that when you think about form you're already incorporating those performance criteria in the process of the generation of forms. Neri Oxman design-process engineering thinking Companies want to innovate. Companies that don't innovate wither on the vine. The connection between STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) and the financial stability of a nation is what needs to established. Neil deGrasse Tyson engineering connections technology I'm against ObamaCare, which is imposing radical change, and I would be against a conservative imposing radical change.... I don't think right-wing social engineering is any more desirable than left-wing social engineering... I don't think imposing radical change from the right or the left is a very good way for a free society to operate. Newt Gingrich engineering wings thinking But, contrary to the lady's prejudices about the engineering profession, the fact is that quite some time ago the tables were turned between theory and applications in the physical sciences. Since World War II the discoveries that have changed the world are not made so much in lofty halls of theoretical physics as in the less-noticed labs of engineering and experimental physics. The roles of pure and applied science have been reversed; they are no longer what they were in the golden age of physics, in the age of Einstein, Schrödinger, Fermi and Dirac. Nicholas Metropolis engineering war science There was a transition going on - Baghdad being the intellectual capital of the world where major advances were made in agriculture and mathematics and engineering and medicine and astronomy, and then that all sort of collapsed. And I was trying to understand how such a intellectually fertile environment can lose its compass bearing. Because I think about the creative centers today - countries, or even regions. Will Silicon Valley always be as innovative? Will the United States be innovative, or will we become complacent? Neil deGrasse Tyson engineering country thinking Good engineering is characterized by gradual, stepwise refinement of products that yields increased performance under given constraints and with given resources. Niklaus Wirth engineering resources yield Indeed, the woes of Software Engineering are not due to lack of tools, or proper management, but largely due to lack of sufficient technical competence. Niklaus Wirth engineering woe tools When wireless is fully applied the earth will be converted into a huge brain, capable of response in every one of its parts. Nikola Tesla engineering future brain Now that I'm on Broadway, it's like NASA engineering with the costumes. I was very grateful for the slightly more high-tech ones in my show, 'Venus in Fur'; our costume designer Anita Yavich is kind of a genius. Nina Arianda fur engineering grateful It is a simple feat of scientific electrical engineering — only expensive — blind, faint-hearted, doubting world.
