Today’s STATUS QUOtes
“We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done.” — Alan Turing
“Coffee and tea start off as simple beans or leaves, which must be dried or roasted, ground and infused with water to produce the end result. In principle, it should be easy to make a cup of coffee or tea. Simply let the ground beans or tea leaves [steep] in hot water for a while, then separate the grounds and tea leaves from the brew and drink. But to the coffee or tea connoisseur, the quest for the perfect taste is long-standing. What beans? What tea leaves? What temperature water and for how long? And what is the proper ratio of water to leaves or coffee?” — Donald A. Norman
“Every person who expresses an honest thought is a soldier in the army of intellectual liberty.” — Robert G. Ingersoll
“They say football builds strong bodies, big muscles, rippling biceps. Not so. I watch it ten hours every weekend. Nothing!” — Robert Orben
“I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself.”
— Marlene Dietrich —
