Engineering is not merely knowing and being knowledgeable, like a
walking encyclopedia; engineering is not merely analysis; engineering
is not merely the possession of the capacity to get elegant solutions
to non-existent engineering problems; engineering is practicing the
art of the organized forcing of technological change... Engineers
operate at the interface between science and society...- Dean Gordon
Brown
Engineering is the art of organizing and directing men and controlling
the forces and materials of nature for the benefit of the human race.
- Henry G. Stott
Engineering is a great profession. There is the satisfaction of
watching a figment of the imagination emerge through the aid of
science to a plan on paper. Then it moves to realisation in stone or
metal or energy. Then it brings homes to men or women. Then it
elevates the standard of living and adds to the comforts of life. This
is the engineer's high privilege.- Herbert Hoover
I don't care what it is, when it has an LCD screen, it makes it
better. - Kevin Rose
