“The scientist knows that the ultimate of everything is unknowable. No matter What subject you take, the current theory of it if carried to the ultimate becomes ridiculous.

“One of my guiding principles is don't do anything that other people are doing. Always do something a little different if you can. The concept is that if you do it a little differently there is a greater potential for reward than if you the same thing that other people are doing. I think that this kind of goal for one's work, having obviously the maximum risk, would have the maximum reward no matter what the field may be.” PeopleIfsThinkingKindMayLittlesDifferentMatterScienceGoalDifferencesPrinciplesGreaterRiskFieldsHard WorkConceptsNo Matter WhatRewardsMaximumGuiding Principles Author:Seymour Cray

“'Conservation' (the conservation law) means this ... that there is a number, which you can calculate, at one moment-and as nature undergoes its multitude of changes, this number doesn't change. That is, if you calculate again, this quantity, it'll be the same as it was before. An example is the conservation of energy: there's a quantity that you can calculate according to a certain rule, and it comes out the same answer after, no matter what happens, happens.” IfsMeanMatterMomentsHappensLawScienceCertainEnergyNatureChangeAnswersNumbersExampleNo Matter WhatQuantityMultitudesConservationDinosaursEnergy Conservation Author:Richard P.

“Iron and coal dominated everywhere, from grey to black: the black boots, the black stove-pipe hat, the black coach or carriage, the black iron frame of the hearth, the black cooking pots and pans and stoves. Was it a mourning? Was it protective coloration? Was it mere depression of the senses? No matter what the original color of the paleotechnic milieu might be it was soon reduced by reason of the soot and cinders that accompanied its activities, to its characteristic tones, grey, dirty-brown, black.” HeartMatterReasonMightScienceBlackColorActivityOriginalsNo Matter WhatCookingMereCoachesSensesDirtyToneCharacteristicsMourningBrownHatsIronPotBootsGreyCoalProtectivePipeCarriagesStovesMilieuPots And PansBlack Boots Book:Technics and Civilization Source: Technics and Civilization
