Our grammar might teach us to divide the world into active subjects and passive objects, but in a coevolutionary relationship every subject is also an object, every object a subject. That's why it makes just as much sense to think of agriculture as something the grasses did to people as a way to conquer the trees. •

From being the object of a religious experience and sanctified, poverty became the object of a moral conception that condemned
~ Michel Foucault
Ahora bien, aquello sobre lo que Diotima y Sócrates se interrogan es el ser mismo de este amor, su naturaleza y su origen, aquello que constituye su fuerza y aquello que lo lleva con tal obstinación o con tal locura hacia su objeto: "¿Qué es el amor mismo, cuál es su naturaleza y, por consiguiente, cuáles son sus obras?".26
~ Michel Foucault
In other words, symmetry is the preservation of the shape of an object even after we deform or rotate it. Several kinds of symmetries occur repeatedly in nature. The first is the symmetry of rotations and reflections.
~ Michio Kaku
Los hologramas son láminas de plástico bidimensionales que han sido especialmente codificadas con la imagen de un objeto tridimensional. Al iluminar una con un rayo láser, esta imagen aparece de pronto. En otras palabras, toda la información necesaria para crear una imagen tridimensional ha sido codificada en una lámina plana, bidimensional, con el uso de láseres

semantic river: each time the same object would give rise to a new meaning, though all former meanings would resonate (like an echo, like a parade of echoes) together with the new one. Each new experience would resound, each time enriching the the harmony.

Once an object escapes, you have to assume that another class or thread may, maliciously or carelessly, misuse it. This is a compelling reason to use encapsulation: it makes it practical to analyze programs for correctness and harder to violate design constraints accidentally.
~ Brian Goetz
Accessing shared, mutable data requires using synchronization; one way to avoid this requirement is to not share. If data is only accessed from a single thread, no synchronization is needed. This technique, thread confinement, is one of the simplest ways to achieve thread safety. When an object is confined to a thread, such usage is automatically thread-safe even if the confined object itself is not.
~ Brian Goetz
Good uses of volatile variables include ensuring the visibility of their own state, that of the object they refer to, or indicating that an important lifecycle event (such as initialization or shutdown) has occurred.
~ Brian Goetz
immutability is not equivalent to simply declaring all fields of an object final. An object whose fields are all final may still be mutable, since final fields can hold references to mutable objects.
~ Brian Goetz

~ Terry Pratchett
