Henry Petroski Zitate

A common misconception about how things such as space shuttles come to be is that engineers simply apply the theories and equations of science. But this cannot be done until the new thing-to-be is conceived in the engineer's mind's eye. Rather than following from science, engineered things lead it.

Ein weit verbreitetes Missverständnis darüber, wie Dinge wie Space Shuttles entstehen, ist, dass Ingenieure einfach die Theorien und Gleichungen der Wissenschaft anwenden. Dies ist jedoch erst möglich, wenn die neue Sache im Kopf des Ingenieurs begriffen ist. Anstatt der Wissenschaft zu folgen, führen technische Dinge dies an.

I want to do a certain thing in the world, and I am going to do it with unwavering concentration. I am concerning myself with only one essential thing: to set man free. I desire to free him from all cages, from all fears, and not to found religions, new sects, nor to establish new theories and new philosophies.

I think that concrete poetry seems to have, as far as I can see, come to a kind of a dead end. It doesn't seem to be going any further than it went in its high period of about five or six years ago.

Ever since Newton, we've done science by taking things apart to see how they work. What the computer enables us to do is to put things together to see how they work: we're now synthesized rather than analysed. I find one of the most enthralling aspects of computers is limitless communication.

Douglas Adams

What is needed, rather than running away or controlling or suppressing or any other resistance, is understanding fear; that means, watch it, learn about it, come directly into contact with it. We are to learn about fear, not how to escape from it.
