Famous quotes containing the words user, agent and/or problem:

    “A worker may be the hammer’s master, but the hammer still prevails. A tool knows exactly how it is meant to be handled, while the user of the tool can only have an approximate idea.”
    —Milan Kundera (b. 1929)

    “... in doing our psychology, we want to attribute mental states fully opaquely because it’s the fully opaque reading which tells us what the agent has in mind, and it’s what the agent has in mind that causes his behavior.”
    —Jerry Alan Fodor (b. 1935)

    “The writer operates at a peculiar crossroads where time and place and eternity somehow meet. His problem is to find that location.”
    —Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
