Famous quotes containing the words engine and/or capacity:
“The machine unmakes the man. Now that the machine is perfect, the engineer is nobody. Every new step in improving the engine restricts one more act of the engineer,unteaches him.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“... the majority of colored men do not yet think it worth while that women aspire to higher education.... The three Rs, a little music and a good deal of dancing, a first rate dress-maker and a bottle of magnolia balm, are quite enough generally to render charming any woman possessed of tact and the capacity for worshipping masculinity.”
—Anna Julia Cooper (18591964)
