Text Quotes
It took capitalism half a century to come back from the Great Depression  (Century Quotes) We’re not great friends, but I admire him. If he thinks he’s the best player of the century, that’s his problem.  (Century Quotes) Fiction is no longer the dominant storytelling device of our time. In the 19th century it worked great, and fiction was the king, but it’s not the king any more.  (Century Quotes) The distinction between rich nations and poor nations is one of the great dominant political and international themes of our century.  (Century Quotes) In the next century, nations as we know it will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single, global authority. National sovereignty wasn’t such a great idea after all.  (Century Quotes) What we have lived through, the 20th century, has been like a great party. Adults now have had the best time humanity has ever had. Now the party is over and the Earth is reckoning up.  (Century Quotes) The record of poetry in the 20th century isn’t all that great anyway. Most of the poets who weren’t fascists were Stalinists.  (Century Quotes) Syria has become the great tragedy of this century - a disgraceful humanitarian calamity with suffering and displacement unparalleled in recent history,  (Century Quotes) King Fahd was a man of great vision and leadership who inspired his countrymen for a quarter of a century as king. He led Saudi Arabia through a period of unparalleled progress and development.  (Century Quotes) What Smith and Marx have in common is that they were both philosophers of great vision and perceptiveness, deep humanity, and a sense of social reality that has been lost in the abstractly formalistic economic theories that have dominated the field since the last third of the nineteenth century.  (Century Quotes) Every single great idea that has marked the 21st century, the 20th century and the 19th century has required government vision and government incentive.  (Century Quotes) The greatest challenge on the Web in the twenty-first century is to connect with your target audience in a way that enriches both them and you.  (Century Quotes) We all know that Social Security is one of this country’s greatest success stories in the 20th century.  (Century Quotes) The greatest discovery of the 21st century will be the discovery that Man was not meant to live at the speed of light.  (Century Quotes) There is plenty of work to do, but big business isn’t investing in rebuilding a green economy for the 21st century. Instead, they put their money into a gigantic financial casino, and when that led to catastrophe in 2008-9, they made us pay for it.  (Century Quotes) Poetry and fiction have grieved for a century now over the loss of some vitality which they think they see in a past from which we are by now irrevocably alienated.  (Century Quotes) Between 2001 and 2011, Brazil lifted 20 million people out of poverty and into its growing middle class, and in the last quarter of the twentieth century Botswana’s gross domestic product per capita grew faster than that of any other country on the planet. The once-labeled ‘Third World’ is edging its way into the ‘First World.’  (Century Quotes) I’ve always believed that government tends to screw up whatever it touches, but Obama in particular seemed different. He understood tech issues that left the other candidates bewildered. Part of it may be his age. But whatever the reason, I had real hope that he could help lead us into a new century of technology leadership and growth.  (Century Quotes) I am no historian, but Hungary is a country which has never known democracy - and by that, I mean not a democratic political system, but an organic process which has mobilised the entire country’s society. In the case of Hungary, this development was blocked by the growth of the Ottoman empire in the 16th century.  (Century Quotes) The origins of the modern West are often seen in the Enlightenment of the seventeenth and eighteenth century, but the roots of the Enlightenment can be found in habits of mind cultivated in Athens, Rome, and Jerusalem, and the institutions that grew from them.  (Century Quotes) I think the O.J. Simpson case conjured all the paranoia, the racial anxiety, but also the racial fatigue that America has endured over the last half century.  (Century Quotes) History has shown that at least one-half of every century is consumed in war  (Century Quotes) Sociology seems to have missed every intellectually promising boat in the last half century  (Century Quotes) Jazz has been the voice of freedom for so many countries over the past half century,  (Century Quotes) Truly, Buffon was the father of all thought in natural history in the second half of the 18th century.  (Century Quotes) Half of all species on Earth could disappear by the end of the century because of our collective impact.  (Century Quotes) For a century and a half now, America and Japan have formed one of the great and enduring alliances of modern times.  (Century Quotes) Pretty much anything you laughed at in the second half of the 20th century can be traced back to Your Show Of Shows.  (Century Quotes) Society presses upon us all the time. The progress of the last half century is the progress of the frog out of his well.  (Century Quotes) A half century of living should put a good deal into a person’s face besides a few wrinkles and some unwelcome folds around the chin.  (Century Quotes)
