Famous quotes containing the words technical and/or features:
“A technical objection is the first refuge of a scoundrel.”
—Heywood Broun (1888–1939)
“All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
