"We do not see things as they are, we see them as we are. We do not hear things as they are, we hear them as we are." ••The Talmud

  "On two occasions I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?'  I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question."

••Charles Babbage
