It was in connexion with his discovery of the solution of the problem
_To move a given weight by a given force_ that Archimedes uttered the
famous saying, "Give me a place to stand on, and I can move the earth"
([Greek: dos moi pou sto kai kino ten gen], or in his broad Doric, as
one version has it, [Greek: pa bo kai kino tan gan]).

The Project Gutenberg EBook of Archimedes, by Thomas Little Heath

Reading the Coins

Filed under: General — m759 @ 7:00 pm

From Didion’s Play It As It Lays :

Everything goes.  I am working very hard at
not thinking about how everything goes. 
I watch a hummingbird, throw the I Ching
but never read the coins, keep my mind in the now.
— Page 8

From Play It As It Lays :

I lie here in the sunlight, watch the hummingbird. 
This morning I threw the coins in the swimming pool,
and they gleamed and turned in the water in such a way
that I was almost moved to read them.  I refrained.
— Page 214

what the Thing on the dais was.
IT was a brain.
A disembodied brain…."

that distinguished a clever robot
from a really conscious person."
