Synthetic Quotes - Page 2

• Even something as complex as the eye has appeared several times; for example, in the squid, the vertebrates, and the arthropods. It's bad enough accounting for the origin of such things once, but the thought of producing them several times according to the modern synthetic theory makes my head swim

• El poeta, descrito en su perfección ideal, pone en actividad toda el alma del hombre, con la subordinación de sus facultades entre sí según su valor y dignidad relativos. Él difunde un tono y un espíritu de unidad, que mezcla, y (por así decirlo) fusiona, cada uno en cada uno, por ese poder sintético y mágico, al que yo me apropiaría exclusivamente el nombre de Imaginación.

• The moment in which the narrator, reaching for his boots, becomes vividly and lastingly aware of the finality of his grandmother's death is another such moment. It would be interesting to explore Proust's great novel from the perspective of seeing how stable synthetic complexes are formed and modified.

• Going to a movie so you won't be offended is like eating potato chips made with Olestra; you avoid the dangers of the real thing, but your insides fill up with synthetic runny stuff.

• I'm very interested in making the photographs look real, but a lot of them are highly synthetic. They're hybrids, located somewhere between the found and the constructed.

• I am very pleased with my synthetic golf green from Southwest Greens. It reacts like a championship golf green, so I can practice my short game whenever I'm at home. I couldn't believe that a synthetic green could be this perfect.

• The idea that human-transforming technology that mingles the dna of natural and synthetic beings and merges man with machines could somehow be used or even inspired by evil supernaturalism to foment destruction within the material world is for some people so exotic as to be inconceivable. Yet nothing should be more fundamentally clear, as students of

• The city man, in his neon-and-mazda glare, knows nothing of nature's midnight. His electric lamps surround him with synthetic sunshine. They push back the dark. They defend him from the realities of the age-old night.

• The bulletproof vest--'bullet resistant,' technically--is made of two double panels of a synthetic material called Kevlar, inside a cloth carrier that holds it around your torso like a lead X-ray smock. One cop wrote phrases from the Bible on his, 'Yea, though I walk in the valley of the Shadow of Death...' Other cops wrote their blood type.

• The person I love would never wear fur. Fur just makes me think of shallow women who have no conscience. The fur industry belongs to a time when people were selfish beyond belief. If you were some ancient tribal cheiftain, and there was not a department store nearby 350 years ago, I'd understand. But now, we have synthetic fibers,and it's not necessary. The elitism of fur makes me wanna puke.

• La cultura nos ha llevado a traicionar nuestro propio espíritu aborigen y nuestra integridad, hacia un reino cada vez peor de distanciamiento sintético, aislante y empobrecedor. Lo cual no quiere decir que no haya más placeres cotidianos, sin los cuales perderíamos nuestra humanidad. Pero a medida que nuestra situación se agrava, vislumbramos cuánto debe borrarse para nuestra redención.

• We live in a kind of dark age, craftily lit with synthetic light, so that no one can tell how dark it has really gotten. But our exiled spirits can tell. Deep in our bones resides an ancient singing couple who just won't give up making their beautiful, wild noise. The world won't end if we can find them.

• If all the bank loans were paid, no one could have a bank deposit, and there would not be a dollar of coin or currency in circulation. This is a staggering thought. We are completely dependent on the commercial banks. Someone has to borrow every dollar we have in circulation, cash, or credit. If the banks create ample synthetic money we are prosperous; if not, we starve. We are absolutely without a permanent money system. When one gets a complete grasp of the picture, the tragic absurdity of our hopeless situation is almost incredible - but there it is.

• "Consideramos que estas verdades son sagradas e innegables" en un borrador de la Declaración de Independencia lo convierte en una afirmación de racionalidad. La mente científica de Franklin se inspiró en el determinismo científico de Isaac Newton y en el empirismo analítico de David Hume y Gottfried Leibniz. En lo que se conoció como "la bifurcación de Hume", la teoría de este último distinguía entre verdades sintéticas, que describen cuestiones de hecho, y verdades analíticas, que son evidentes por sí mismas en virtud de la razón y la definición.

• I feel like there's a hunger in the culture now for the live experience maybe as a counterpoint to the more sort of synthetic lives that we've been living.

• Creo que hay una gran diferencia entre las drogas sintéticas y las naturales. ... Creo que estas plantas 'toman a la gente' tanto como la gente toma a las plantas. ... Cuando tomas uno de estos antiguos, antiguos alucinógenos estás bloqueando los campos morfogenéticos de todas las personas que alguna vez lo tomaron.

• Creo que una de las perspectivas tanto liberadoras como aterradoras de la biología sintética, por ejemplo, es que vamos a tener todos estos laboratorios biosintéticos "hágalo usted mismo" en los que la gente va a jugar con el software de la vida. Tendremos una nueva generación de artistas que jugarán con los genomas como Blake y Byron jugaban con la poesía. Y cuando los genomas sean el nuevo lienzo del artista, podremos mejorar radicalmente la especie humana y el software de la biología de la especie humana.

• La disponibilidad de lo mejor también es limitada en nuestra cultura. Y también es extremadamente cara. Es ridículo. Un kilo de aceite de rosa me cuesta mucho. Cuando se envía aquí y pagamos aranceles, ¿cuánto más tengo que cobrar al consumidor? ¿Y entonces quién podría permitírselo? Por eso la gente vende rosa sintética y acaba envenenándose. No debería ser así.

• All hair is away from the face - there's no emotion and all of the personality is taken away. I envisioned the way a 'virtual girl' is drawn in a cartoon. Then I added these different colored extensions - white, red and black, which adds to the synthetic feeling of the hair. I used colors which looked most dramatic against each of the models' real hair. The different colors give you that pop of fakeness so we're not talking about reality. Like a futuristic princess.

• I'm gonna design my own fleet of trailers. No! I'm gonna record an album like Jennifer Lopez. It'll be an acoustic version of K.C. and the Sunshine Band. Then maybe I'll design a line of clothes like Puff Daddy, but all in synthetic fur.

• Where Picasso paints cause, Repin paints effect. Repin predigests art for the spectator and provides a short cut to the pleasure of art that is necessarily difficult in genuine art. Repin, or kitsch, is synthetic art.
