Famous quotes containing the words data and/or driven:
“This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“I wasn’t driven into medicine by a social conscience but by rampant curiosity.”
—Jonathan Miller (b. 1936)
