Men are to be proverb

 Men are to be guided only by their self-interests. Good government is a good balancing of these; and, except a keen eye and appetite for self-interest, requires no virtue in any quarter. To both parties it is emphatically a machine: to the discontented, a ''taxing-machine';' to the contented, a ''machine for securing property'.' Its duties and its faults are not those of a father, but of an active parish-constable.
  Thomas Carlyle

 It was good to get out on the new machine today. I managed about 20 laps
and recorded my fastest lap of the day on the new machine. The new machine
has lots of potential and I can feel it is a little bit better than my 2005
machine in lots of areas. We found a lot of positive points for HRC to
develop - especially the feel of the machine under braking and turning into
corners. I'm looking forward to racing the machine as soon as it's available.

 Because it's deleting files from network drives, it doesn't do anything to the client machine. If the infected machine is linked to another machine's C: drive, it could delete that machines root directory and prevent the other machine from booting up, but won't do anything to that machine itself.

 Nicky has had a really good day, especially with the performance he showed
on the race tires. His times would have been good enough to win Sunday's
race here comfortably. Nicky also improved the setting of the machine,
which will help him in the remaining six races. Max tried the new machine
and found many positive areas and gave us some idea of the areas of the
machine which need attention. During the next few days we will decide a
further test programme for the new machine and make a plan for its race debut.

 A machine cannot go beyond the limitations of its design. The man-machine fears death because a machine cannot see beyond its own destruction.

 This is the first time that we're seeing him hit. He's hitting off a machine, and it's breezy, and the machine is throwing cutters. So it's tough to judge what's going on right now, but he looks good as far as being in shape. He's lost some weight and has a good attitude. I joked with him about what happened last year, and he laughed about it. It's a good start.

 Not wishing to be disturbed over moral issues of the political economy, Americans cling to the notion that the government is a sort of automatic machine, regulated by the balancing of competing interests.

 Our children are being shamefully treated because the state wants to streamline the government to run like a well-oiled machine. Our kids are in the way of that machine.

 An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like a machine. A money machine.
  Marilyn Monroe

 The cycle of the machine is now coming to an end. Man has learned much in the hard discipline and the shrewd, unflinching grasp of practical possibilities that the machine has provided in the last three centuries: but we can no more continue to live in the world of the machine than we could live successfully on the barren surface of the moon.
  Lewis Mumford

 The situation is very dangerous. ... The machine is absolutely out of control. We tried to fix the machine after the first debate, but the Bush Cheney Champaign officials would not let us do the job properly. The machine is locked in the 'Angry Lies' mode under the 'complete desperation' menu. I wish I could help them, but they voided the warranty and refused to let us work on it when we had the chance. Now they are paying the price.

 Concentration of power in a political machine is bad; and an Established Church is only a political machine; it was invented for that; it is nursed, cradled, preserved for that; it is an enemy to human liberty, and does no good which it could not bet
  Mark Twain

 This is something that we pride ourselves in - the human factor. I don't care if it works on my machine. Does it work on grandma's machine?

 You know, we had a really awesome machine coming in here, a really strong machine. It just really feels great. Everything fell into place.
