Compassion--that’s the one thing no machine ever had. Maybe it’s the one thing that keeps man ahead of them Picture Quote #1

As a young man, every bone in my body wanted to pick up a machine gun and kill Germans. And yet I had absolutely no reason to do so. Certainly nobody invited me to do the job. But that’s what I felt that I was trained to do. Now no part of my upbringing was militaristic Picture Quote #1

How inferior the human machine is, compared to man-made machines. They can be decoked, unscrewed, oiled and parts replaced. Decidedly, nature is not a very wonderful thing Picture Quote #1

A man who says that men are machines may be a great scientist. A man who says he is a machine is ‘depersonalized’ in psychiatric jargon Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been curious about why one man jumps out of a foxhole with a grenade and charges a machine gun nest, and his buddy next to him sits there cowering. And my feeling is that the difference is tiny between the two Picture Quote #1

The ego is willing but the machine cannot go on. It’s the last thing a man will admit, that his mind ages Picture Quote #1

Man is alone everywhere. But the solitude of the Mexican, under the great stone night of the high plateau that is still inhabited by insatiable gods, is very different from that of the North American, who wanders in an abstract world of machines, fellow citizens and moral precepts Picture Quote #1

Computing machines perhaps can do the work of a dozen ordinary men, but there is no machine that can do the work of one extraordinary man Picture Quote #1

Soon silence will have passed into legend. Man has turned his back on silence. Day after day he invents machines and devices that increase noise and distract humanity from the essence of life, contemplation, meditation Picture Quote #1

Oh the nerves, the nerves; the mysteries of this machine called man! Oh the little that unhinges it, poor creatures that we are! Picture Quote #1

One machine can do the work of fifty ordinary men. No machine can do the work of one extraordinary man Picture Quote #1
