Famous quotes containing the word defects:

    The defects of the mind, like those of the face, grow worse with age.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    The defects and faults of the mind are like wounds in the body; after all imaginable care has been taken to heal them up, still there will be a scar left behind, and they are in continual danger of breaking the skin and bursting out again.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    The machine is impersonal, it takes the pride away from a piece of work, the individual merits and defects that go along with all work that is not done by a machine—which is to say, its little bit of humanity.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
