" "I am not impressed by ancestry, since if I could trace my origins to Judas Maccabeus or to King David, that would not add one inch to my stature, either physically, mentally or ethically. What's more, what about all my other ancestors? There must have been uncounted thousands of human beings in the century of King David, all of whom in some small way contributed to my production, and every one of them but King David might have been criminals and drunkards for all I know. (Nor was King David himself entirely unremarkable for his ethical standards.)

Additional quotes by Isaac Asimov
Em algum lugar nas entranhas do armário (talvez a criação mecânica mais universalmente popular da inventividade humana), um barman entrou em ação... um barman não humano cuja alma eletrônica misturava as coisas não por medidas, mas por contagem de átomos; as proporções eram sempre perfeitas e ele não poderia ser comparado a ninguém de carne e osso, por maiores que fossem suas habilidades artísticas.
