This was, he told the King, a femfatalatron, an erotifying device stochastic, elastic and orgiastic, and with plenty of feedback; whoever was placed inside the apparatus instantaneously experienced all the charms, lures, wiles, winks and witchery of all the fairer sex in the Universe at once. The femfatalatron operated on a power of forty megamors, with a maximum attainable efficiency - given a constant concupiscence coefficient - of ninety-six percent, while the system's libidinous lubricity, measured of course in kilocupids, produced up to six units for every remote-control caress. This marvelous mechanism, moreover, was equipped with reversible ardor dampers, omnidirectional consummation amplifiers, absorption philters, paphian peripherals, and "first-sight" flip-flop circuits, since Trurl held here to the position of Dr. Yentzicus, creator of the famous oculo-oscular feel theory.
There were also all sorts of auxiliary components, like a high-frequency titillizer, an alternating tantalator, plus an entire set of lecherons and debaucheraries; on the outside, in a special glass case, were enormous dials, on which one could carefully follow the course of the whole decaptivation process. Statistical analysis revealed that the femfatalatron gave positive, permanent results in ninety-eight cases of unrequited amatorial superfixation out of a hundred. ~ Stanisław Lem
Reversible Octopus quotes by Stanisław Lem
Friends come and go like the waves of the ocean but the true ones stay, like an octopus on your face ~ Anonymous
Reversible Octopus quotes by Anonymous
We split from our common ancestor with the octopus half a billion years ago. And yet, you can make friends with an octopus. ~ Sy Montgomery
Reversible Octopus quotes by Sy Montgomery
Talent without discipline is like an octopus on roller skates. There's plenty of movement, but you never know if it's going to be forward, backwards, or sideways. ~ H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
Reversible Octopus quotes by H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
We bring champagne to Franklin and Jeffrey, and I offer a final toast, 'Wishing you all good things in your life together.' Short, simple, to the point.
I look at Meredith, relaxed in her ivory gown, my sister is all grown up. I'm grateful we did our growing up together. ~ Steven Rowley
Reversible Octopus quotes by Steven Rowley
At twenty life was like wrestling an octopus. Every moment mattered. At thirty it was a walk in the country. Most of the time your mind was somewhere else. By the time you got to seventy, it was probably like watching snooker on the telly. ~ Mark Haddon
Reversible Octopus quotes by Mark Haddon
My advice was to start a policy of making reversible decisions before anyone left the meeting or the office. In a startup, it doesn't matter if you're 100 percent right 100 percent of the time. What matters is having forward momentum and a tight fact-based data/metrics feedback loop to help you quickly recognize and reverse any incorrect decisions. That's why startups are agile. By the time a big company gets the committee to organize the subcommittee to pick a meeting date, your startup could have made 20 decisions, reversed five of them and implemented the fifteen that worked. ~ Steven Gary Blank
Reversible Octopus quotes by Steven Gary Blank
We grew to our present size almost against ourselves. It was not a deliberately planned commercial venture in the sense that I sat down and said that we were going to make ourselves into a huge financial octopus. We evolved by necessity. We did not sit down and say to ourselves, 'How can we make a big pile of dough?' It just happened. ~ Walt Disney
Reversible Octopus quotes by Walt Disney
Getting all your addictions under control is like trying to put an octopus to bed ~ Anne Lamott
Reversible Octopus quotes by Anne Lamott
Waves, once they land on the beach, are not reversible. ~ Grace Paley
Reversible Octopus quotes by Grace Paley
So far as we know, all the fundamental laws of physics, like Newton's equations, are reversible. ~ Richard P. Feynman
Reversible Octopus quotes by Richard P. Feynman
By the mercy of God all the ideas of youth are reversible! ~ Katherine Cecil Thurston
Reversible Octopus quotes by Katherine Cecil Thurston
Rock music sounds like an octopus making love to a bagpipe. ~ Brother Dave Gardner
Reversible Octopus quotes by Brother Dave Gardner
They don't want to hear how Octavia is different from us. They want to know how we're the same. They know what it's like to have an itch. They can imagine what it's like to be a mother. This brief encounter has changed them. Now they can identify with an octopus. They ~ Sy Montgomery
Reversible Octopus quotes by Sy Montgomery
at California's Monterey Bay Aquarium found a banana peel on the floor in front of the Shale Reef exhibit at 3 a.m. On closer inspection, the banana peel turned out to be a healthy, fist-size red octopus. The security officer followed the wet slime trail and replaced the octopus in the exhibit it had come from. But here's the shocking part: The aquarium didn't know it had a red octopus living in its Shale Reef exhibit. Apparently the octopus hitchhiked there as a juvenile, attached to a rock or sponge added to the exhibit, and grew up at the aquarium without anyone knowing it was there. ~ Sy Montgomery
Reversible Octopus quotes by Sy Montgomery
I've traveled all over. I've been to all 50 states. With my dad in the Navy, I lived in the Philippines from nine to 12, and I had dog, monkey, lizard, everything. Then I was in Hawaii, and I'm spear-fishing, catching octopus with my hands. ~ Graham Elliot
Reversible Octopus quotes by Graham Elliot
A portable friend to all readers-especia lly but not only women-who need to learn that the Golden Rule works only if it's reversible: We must learn to treat ourselves as well as we wish to treat others. ~ Gloria Steinem
Reversible Octopus quotes by Gloria Steinem
We get in the car, and someone signals their blinker for my parking spot but I emphatically wave them away like they're after my soul and not just my parking spot. And so we sit there for twelve minutes until the meter runs out. Lily silently crawls from the passenger seat into my lap and curls up into a little ball. She lets out an enormous sigh. ~ Steven Rowley
Reversible Octopus quotes by Steven Rowley
If the students were taught about shuttle flights, plate tectonics and submarine volcanoes, they were also immersed in the traditional myths of their culture - the ancient story, for example, of how the island of Pohnpei had been built under the direction of a mystical octopus, Lidakika. (I was fascinated by this, for it was the only cephalopod creation myth I had ever heard. ~ Oliver Sacks
Reversible Octopus quotes by Oliver Sacks
On 'Chopped,' the time goes down a bit and there are several ingredients, usually one that makes no sense whatsoever with the rest of the ingredients. So it gets you out of your culinary comfort zone a little bit. Like we had octopus and cheese paired up with each other. ~ Michael Symon
Reversible Octopus quotes by Michael Symon
More relevantly, the revelation that Frank is Frances and that she became he because of a homegrown science experiment connects us to the practice, widespread in the Culture, of voluntary sex change. The difference in circumstances - in the Culture, the change is always completely successful, entirely reversible, and bioengineered inside the individual from birth - lies at the heart of Banks' conviction that the ability to switch between genders at will is essential to the creation of a more just society - once one has lived as both man and woman, misogyny becomes substantially more difficult to embrace. ~ Simone Caroti
Reversible Octopus quotes by Simone Caroti
opponent was half pillbug, half octopus, and all butt ugly. I closed ~ Richard Roberts
Reversible Octopus quotes by Richard Roberts
Teaching without talent, compassion and endurance is like an octopus on skates - there will be movement without direction. ~ Kavita Bhupta Ghosh
Reversible Octopus quotes by Kavita Bhupta Ghosh
Oh, I love hugging. I wish I was an octopus, so I could hug 10 people at a time! ~ Drew Barrymore
Reversible Octopus quotes by Drew Barrymore
I smile to myself. I have a secret: I wish I was Dumbo the Octopus. ~ Ned Vizzini
Reversible Octopus quotes by Ned Vizzini
Mischief and craft are plainly seen to be characteristics of this creature. - Claudius Aelianus, third century A.D., writing about the octopus ~ Peter Godfrey-Smith
Reversible Octopus quotes by Peter Godfrey-Smith
There was no escape from the letter-writer who, a hundred or a hundred and twenty-five years ago, captured a coveted correspondent. It would have been as easy to shake off an octopus or a boa-constrictor. ~ Agnes Repplier
Reversible Octopus quotes by Agnes Repplier
Here is a precious message for the New Year from the old year: Be an octopus in the New Year and hold the life tightly with six arms! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Reversible Octopus quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
An octopus has eight legs. You know what else has eight legs? My bed last night. Oh, I didn't have a foursome, but I did sleep with six prosthetic legs (I have a bad back). ~ Jarod Kintz
Reversible Octopus quotes by Jarod Kintz
Right now I'd love to be sitting on a Greek island somewhere because of being Greek American, eating great octopus salad and some fantastic lamb. Or sipping a little ouzo. I think the Mediterranean diet is one of the healthiest ... Lots of nuts, vegetables, fruits, fresh fish, lean meats, yogurt. ~ Cat Cora
Reversible Octopus quotes by Cat Cora
I am a collector of notes upon subjects that have diversity - such as deviations from concentricity in the lunar crater Copernicus, and a sudden appearance of purple Englishmen - stationary meteor-radiants, and a reported growth of hair on the bald head of a mummy - and 'Did the girl swallow the octopus? ~ Charles Fort
Reversible Octopus quotes by Charles Fort
One can never change the past, only the hold it has on you, and while nothing in your life is reversible, you can reverse it nevertheless. ~ Merle Shain
Reversible Octopus quotes by Merle Shain
[T]he most repugnant bastard there is: the bastard-octopus. ~ Roland Barthes
Reversible Octopus quotes by Roland Barthes
I was bitten by an octopus. ~ Ted Cruz
Reversible Octopus quotes by Ted Cruz
The enemy is typically depicted as a dangerous octopus, a vicious dragon, a multiheaded hydra, a giant venomous tarantula, or an engulfing Leviathan. Other frequently used symbols include vicious predatory felines or birds, monstrous sharks, and ominous snakes, particularly vipers and boa constrictors. Scenes depicting strangulation or crushing, ominous whirlpools, and treacherous quicksands also abound in pictures from the time of wars, revolutions, and political crises. The juxtaposition of paintings from non-ordinary states of consciousness that depict perinatal experiences with the historical pictorial documentation collected by Lloyd de Mause and Sam Keen offer strong evidence for the perinatal roots of human violence. ~ Stanislav Grof
Reversible Octopus quotes by Stanislav Grof
If you're going to make a lot of films about a particular group of animals, you might as well pick one that's fairly common. And octopus are: they live in all the oceans. They also live deep. And I can't say octopus are responsible for my really strong interest in getting in subs and going deep, but whatever the case, I like that. ~ Mike DeGruy
