Analogue Signal

Famous quotes containing the words analogue and/or signal:

    “Human language appears to be a unique phenomenon, without significant analogue in the animal world.”
    —Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)

    “Certainly the effort to remain unchanged, young, when the body gives so impressive a signal of change as the menopause, is gallant; but it is a stupid, self-sacrificial gallantry, better befitting a boy of twenty than a woman of forty-five or fifty. Let the athletes die young and laurel-crowned. Let the soldiers earn the Purple Hearts. Let women die old, white-crowned, with human hearts.”
    —Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
