Famous quotes containing the words key and/or data:

    “Every revolution was first a thought in one man’s mind, and when the same thought occurs in another man, it is the key to that era.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “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)
