And I'm like, What is this jacked up metaphor?

And this metaphor in my head I got anagnorisis and peripetia on my chin.

So, we can change the metaphor. Let's call the Trojan Horse the vessel by which you get through the gate, get through the constraints of a project.

But, both aesthetically and politically, the parallel is hardly far fetched.

Part of the problem is that expectations had been distorted by a metaphor that described events in short run terms.

And in convincing yourself that this metaphor is true, there are lots of similarities between genetic programs and computer programs that could help to convince you.

I explain chemical equilibrium using analogies to awkward middle school dances, and I talk about fuel cells with stories about boys and girls at a summer camp.

And to go back to the analogy with nature, one can begin to think in terms of populations, one can talk about permutations, about generations, about crossing and breeding to come up with a design.

Yet analogies with the Third Reich, although highly effective as a way to denounce people with whose views one disagrees, are usually false.

So now, if you take this metaphor of genome as program seriously, you have to consider that Chris Anderson is a computer fabricated artifact, as is Jim Watson, Craig Venter, as are all of us.

When we talk about bottom up, decentralized phenomena, the ant colony is the classic metaphor, because, no individual ant knows what it's doing, but collectively ants are able to reach incredibly intelligent decisions.

Replying to the representative of Singapore, who had raised the matter of a moratorium on executions, he said that he could not accept the analogy she had drawn with prisons, for the simple reason that the death penalty was irreversible.

Erdoğan once claimed that democracy is like a train, in that when you reach your destination, you get off a simile with which Putin would undoubtedly agree. For both leaders, democratic systems are little more than blunt tools that can be used to advance one s personal ambitions, and then discarded at will.
