Quotes by Engineering They say there were birds who used to soar through the skies like planes.It seems strange that a small animal could achieve anything as complex as human engineering, but the possibility is too enticing to ignore. Tahereh Mafi engineering sky animal Engineering is easy - it's the people problems that are hard. Temple Grandin engineering problem people It's clearly a crisis of two things: of consciousness and conditioning. We have the technological power, the engineering skills to save our planet, to cure disease, to feed the hungry, to end war; But we lack the intellectual vision, the ability to change our minds. We must decondition ourselves from 10,000 years of bad behavior. And, it's not easy. Terence McKenna engineering war years Engineering is the professional and systematic application of science to the efficient utilization of natural resources to produce wealth. Theodore J. Hoover engineering definitions science The purpose of a business is to get and keep a customer. Without customers, no amount of engineering wizardry, clever financing, or operations expertise can keep a company going. Theodore Levitt engineering purpose clever Science is the study of what Is, Engineering builds what Will Be. The scientist merely explores that which exists, while the engineer creates what has never existed before. Theodore von Karman engineering scientist study Scientists study the world as it is, engineers create the world that never has been. Theodore von Karman engineering study world We are reaping the fruits of ten thousand, fifty thousand years of sowing of the fields of mind. And it is being dropped into our laps for us to create human-machine interfacing, control of genetic material, redefinition of social reality, re engineering of languages, revisioning of the planetary ecology, all these things fall upon us. Terence McKenna engineering reality fall Problems in human engineering will receive during the coming years the same genius and attention which the nineteenth century gave to the more material forms of engineering. Thomas A. Edison engineering science years To Monsieur Eiffel the Engineer, the brave builder of so gigantic and original a specimen of modern Engineering from one who has the greatest respect and admiration for all Engineers including the Great Engineer the Bon Dieu. Thomas A. Edison engineering brave science Engineering is the art of directing the great sources of power in nature for the use and convenience of man. Thomas Tredgold engineering men art I was in school studying civil engineering. A guy approached me on the street and said that I had a interesting look-very exotic. He told me I should try to be in the industry. Thuy Trang engineering interesting school Social Engineering - The art of replacing what works with what sounds good. Thomas Sowell engineering sound art The Web is now philosophical engineering. Physics and the Web are both about the relationship between the small and the large.

Thomas Sowell engineering knowledgeable-person political I studied engineering at MIT. There, the late, great physicist Philip Morrison introduced me to the idea that, in any system, there exists the inevitability that an event will occur which is completely unrelated to anything that preceded it. It completely changed my perception of "impossible." Tohoru Masamune engineering perception ideas Law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life.
