Benito Mussolini The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next. Henry Ward Beecher A great many people experience the movement from one century to the next, but a minuscule number of people experience the movement from one millennium to the next. Neale Donald Walsch As we move into the 21st century, there's what the Bible calls a 'quickening of the spirit.' Neale Donald Walsch We've seen in the last half century an incredible shift. This is just an extraordinary time to be alive. Neale Donald Walsch There have been in this century only one great man and one great thing: Napoleon and liberty. For want of the great man, let us have the great thing. Victor Hugo The three great problems of this century; the degradation of man in the proletariat, the subjection of women through hunger, the atrophy of the child by darkness. Victor Hugo The nineteenth century believed in science but the twentieth century does not. Gertrude Stein The nineteenth century was completely lacking in logic, it had cosmic terms and hopes, and aspirations, and discoveries, and ideals but it had no logic. Gertrude Stein Every adolescent has that dream every century has that dream every revolutionary has that dream, to destroy the family. Gertrude Stein We are living in 1937, and our universities, I suggest, are not half-way out of the fifteenth century. We have made hardly any changes in our conception of university organization, education, graduation, for a century - for several centuries. H. G. Wells In England we have come to rely upon a comfortable time-lag of fifty years or a century intervening between the perception that something ought to be done and a serious attempt to do it. H. G. Wells Oh, if I could but live another century and see the fruition of all the work for women! There is so much yet to be done. Susan B. Anthony John Dalton's records, carefully preserved for a century, were destroyed during the World War II bombing of Manchester. It is not only the living who are killed in war. Isaac Asimov Dalton's records, carefully preserved for a century, were destroyed during the World War II bombing of Manchester. It is not only the living who are killed in war. Isaac Asimov Appetite is essentially insatiable, and where it operates as a criterion of both action and enjoyment (that is, everywhere in the Western world since the sixteenth century) it will infallibly discover congenial agencies (mechanical and political) of expression. Marshall McLuhan Advertising is the greatest art form of the 20th century. Marshall McLuhan Ads are the cave art of the twentieth century. Marshall McLuhan If the nineteenth century was the age of the editorial chair, ours is the century of the psychiatrist's couch. Marshall McLuhan We seem to have a compulsion these days to bury time capsules in order to give those people living in the next century or so some idea of what we are like. Alfred Hitchcock |
