Robot Master

Famous quotes containing the words robot and/or master:

    Let’s start with the three fundamental Rules of Robotics.... We have: one, a robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. Two, a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. And three, a robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.
    Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)

    Macavity’s a Mystery Cat; he’s called the Hidden Paw—
    For he’s the master criminal who can defy the Law.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
