Sign Processes

Famous quotes containing the words sign and/or processes:

    Though I do hate him as I do hell pains,
    Yet, for necessity of present life,
    I must show out a flag and sign of love,
    Which is indeed but sign.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The vast results obtained by Science are won by no mystical faculties, by no mental processes other than those which are practiced by every one of us, in the humblest and meanest affairs of life. A detective policeman discovers a burglar from the marks made by his shoe, by a mental process identical with that by which Cuvier restored the extinct animals of Montmartre from fragments of their bones.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
