QUOTES AND APHORISMS ON TOOLS

 

 

A tool is but the extension of a man's hand, and a machine is but a complex tool. And he that invents a machine augments the power of a man and the well-being of mankind.

 

Henry Ward Beecher (1813-1887, American preacher, orator, writer)

 

Don't force it... get a bigger hammer.

 

Arthur Bloch

 

There is a great satisfaction in building good tools for other people to use.

 

Freeman Dyson (1923-, British-born American physicist, author)

 

Man is a tool-using animal. Without tools he is nothing, with tools he is all.

 

Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881, Scottish philosopher, author)

 

A worker may be the hammer's master, but the hammer still prevails. A tool knows exactly how it is meant to be handled, while the user of the tool can only have an approximate idea.

 

Milan Kundera (1929-, Czech author, critic)

 

O God, thy sea is so great, and my boat is so small.
