Highly Biased Bit

Famous quotes containing the words highly, biased and/or bit:

    The truth is, as every one knows, that the great artists of the world are never Puritans, and seldom even ordinarily respectable. No virtuous man—that is, virtuous in the Y.M.C.A. sense—has ever painted a picture worth looking at, or written a symphony worth hearing, or a book worth reading, and it is highly improbable that the thing has ever been done by a virtuous woman.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    Scientists are human—they’re as biased as any other group. But they do have one great advantage in that science is a self-correcting process.
    Cyril Ponnamperuma (b. 1923)

    unless I can shake myself free of my dog, my flag,
    of my desk, my mind, I find life a bit of a drag.
    Not always, mind you. Usually I’m like my frying pan
    useful, graceful, sturdy and with no caper, no plan.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
