Text Quotes
It’s the 21st century. It’s healthier for us, better for the environment and certainly kinder to be a vegetarian  (Century Quotes) 18th century scientists, the French in particular, seldom did things simply if an absurdly demanding alternative was available  (Century Quotes) If by the quarter of the twentieth century godliness wasn’t next to something more interesting than cleanliness, it might be time to reevaluate our notions of godliness  (Century Quotes) She loved to walk down the street with a book under her arm. It had the same significance for her as an elegant cane for the dandy a century ago. It differentiated her from others  (Century Quotes) And in some of the people of the town and community surrounding it, one of the characteristic diseases of the twentieth century was making its way: the suspicion that they would be greatly improved if they were somewhere else  (Century Quotes) I want to die on your chest but not yet she wrote sometime in the 13th century of our love  (Century Quotes) ... The girl raised her eyes to see who was passing by the window, and that casual glance was the beginning of a cataclysm of love that still had not ended half a century later  (Century Quotes) The greatest of all the accomplishments of 20th century science has been the discovery of human ignorance  (Century Quotes) It has become much harder, in the past century, to tell where the garden leaves off and pure nature begins  (Century Quotes) The river flowed from century to century, and human affairs play themselves out on its banks. Play themselves out to be forgotten the next day, while the river flows on  (Century Quotes) Even as the nineteenth century had to come to grips with the notion of human descent from apes, we must now come to terms with the fact that those apes were stoned apes  (Century Quotes) She wanted to be herself again, to recover all that she had been obliged to give up in half a century of servitude that had doubtless made her happy but which, once her husband was dead, did not leave her even the vestiges of her identity  (Century Quotes) Then I reflect that all things happen, happen to one, precisely now. Century follows century, and things happen only in the present. There are countless men in the air, on land and at sea, and all that really happens happens to me  (Century Quotes) And then, build a bustling wonderful city of the 21st century, with a restoration of a spectacular skyline, which Manhattan, of course, needs. So, that is really the design as a whole  (Century Quotes) As I grew up, I was continually to suffer hardships in different realms of life - in my family, in my relationship to Japanese society and in my way of living at large in the latter half of the twentieth century  (Century Quotes) At American Airlines, we have built a business around the love of travel that has lasted three quarters of a century. And I’m pretty sure we’re just getting started  (Century Quotes) You held out your hand, and I took it without stopping to make sense of what I was doing. For the first time in almost a century, I felt hope  (Century Quotes) I wasn’t trying to invent better and better homes, but to show her that homes didn’t matter, we could live in any home, in any city, in any country, in any century, and be happy, as if the world were just what we lived in  (Century Quotes) I could fall in love with a cruel desert that kills without passion, a canyon full of scorpions, one thousand blinding arctic storms, a century sealed in a cave, a river of molten salt flowing down my throat. But never with you  (Century Quotes) It is no coincidence that the century of total war coincided with the century of central banking  (Century Quotes) We can sometimes recognize the looks of a century ago on a modern face; but never those of a century to come  (Century Quotes) I’m the king of the 20th century. I’m the boogeyman, the villian, the black sheep of the family  (Century Quotes) He was right – she was beating herself up about hurting his feelings. The girl was a classic martyr. She’d totally been born in the wrong century. She should have lived back when she could have gotten herself fed to some lions for a good cause  (Century Quotes) Violence is not the answer, it doesn’t work any more. We are at the end of the worst century in which the greatest atrocities in the history of the world have occurred... The nature of human beings must change. We must cultivate love and compassion  (Century Quotes) Lenin, the greatest man of action in our century and at the same time the most selfless  (Century Quotes) Civilization is not inherited; it has to be learned and earned by each generation anew; if the transmission should be interrupted for one century, civilization would die, and we should be savages again  (Century Quotes) Our rulers for more than half a century have made sure that we are never to be told the truth about anything that our government has done to other people, not to mention our own  (Century Quotes) A genius may perhaps be a century ahead of his age and hence stands there as a paradox, but in the end, the race will assimilate what was once a paradox, so it is no longer paradoxical  (Century Quotes) Baseball is the very symbol, the outward and visible expression of the drive and push and rush and struggle of the raging, tearing, booming nineteenth century  (Century Quotes) This may be said for the last quarter of the twentieth century: the truism that if we want a better world we will have to be better people came to be acknowledge, if not thoroughly understood, by a significantly large minority  (Century Quotes)
