Instead of an attic with a few test tubes, bits of wire and odds and ends, the attack on the atomic nucleus has required the development and construction of great instruments on an engineering scale.
Ernest Lawrence

Jobs are disappearing from every sector of the economy, from engineering to health care workers, forcing hundreds of thousands of families into unemployment and low-paying jobs.
Jerry Costello

Leonardo Da Vinci combined art and science and aesthetics and engineering, that kind of unity is needed once again.
Ben Shneiderman

Meccano gives boys the secrets of the world's wonderful engineering structures.
Frank Hornby

My father was a professor of civil engineering at MIT, and my mother taught high school English.
Eric Allin Cornell

My grandfather on my mother's side was a professor of mechanical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; my other grandfather was a lawyer, and one time Speaker of the Tennessee House of Representatives.
Kenneth G. Wilson

My latter schooldays and my university days were during the war, when science - physics, in particular - was a very important and glamorous subject. A lot of us felt that if we couldn't get into science, we might try engineering or medicine.
John Henry Carver

Nonetheless, the research budgets of the Department of Defense are under enormous stress-and they are extremely important because they support more than 40 percent of all federal funding for engineering schools across the country. So the threat was and is real.
Charles Vest

One man's "magic" is another man's engineering. "Supernatural" is a null word.
Robert A. Heinlein

One should proceed with caution. We may simply not be wise enough to do some of the kinds of engineering things that people are talking about doing.
Leon Kass

Our engineering departments build freeways which destroy a city or a landscape, in the process.
Arthur Erickson

Piecemeal social engineering resembles physical engineering in regarding the ends as beyond the province of technology.
Karl Popper

Protein engineering is a technology of molecular machines - of molecular machines that are part of replicators - and so it comes from an area that already raises some of the issues that nanotechnology will raise.
K. Eric Drexler

Scientists at MIT and engineering schools all across America say that they could improve the fuel economy standards for the existing set of vehicles by 10 miles per gallon using existing technology, without compromising safety or comfort at all.
Ed Markey

So I went for engineering, specifically product design, which I enjoyed.
Debi Thomas

Software Engineering might be science; but that's not what I do. I'm a hacker, not an engineer.
Jamie Zawinski

Some of modern engineering is necessary to good art. But I think of myself is a cultural artist.
Larry Wall

The cloning of humans is on most of the lists of things to worry about from Science, along with behaviour control, genetic engineering, transplanted heads, computer poetry and the unrestrained growth of plastic flowers.
Lewis Thomas

The engineering is secondary to the vision.
Cynthia Ozick

The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art.
Leonardo da Vinci
