Text Quotes
I listen to both oldies and contemporary stations. I enjoy listening to current stuff because there’s an energy to it that’s inspiring  (Contemporary Quotes) There’s this idea that when you turn 40, you automatically go to adult contemporary heaven, but I want to try and challenge that  (Contemporary Quotes) I’m not doing contemporary songs unless something comes along that really knocks my socks off  (Contemporary Quotes) As a nation we have the right to decide our own affairs, to mould our own future. This does not pose any danger to anybody. Our nation is fully aware of the responsibility for its own fate in the complicated situation of the contemporary world  (Contemporary Quotes) With the destruction of history, contemporary events themselves retreat into a remote and fabulous realm of unverifiable stories, uncheckable statistics, unlikely explanations and untenable reasoning  (Contemporary Quotes) I don’t think that modesty is the outstanding characteristic of contemporary politics, do you?  (Contemporary Quotes) The idea of the paranoid style as a force in politics would have little contemporary relevance or historical value if it were applied only to men with profoundly disturbed minds. It is the use of paranoid modes of expression by more or less normal people that makes the phenomenon significant  (Contemporary Quotes) What need had the businessman to scribble or philosophize when he dominated the imagination of his time and the frantic materialism that was his principle of existence had become the haunting central figure in contemporary life?  (Contemporary Quotes) The contemporary hero, the mythical pattern in the imitation of whom we would live, remains as yet undefined. We have no hero; what is more to the point, we suspect hero worship  (Contemporary Quotes) This socialism will develop in all its phases until it reaches its own extremes and absurdities. Then once again a cry of denial will break from the titanic chest of the revolutionary minority and again a mortal struggle will begin, in which socialism will play the role of contemporary conservatism and will be overwhelmed in the subsequent revolution, as yet unknown to us  (Contemporary Quotes) I’ve always liked the idea of taking old dramatic ideas and devices and making them feel relevant or contemporary or whatever  (Contemporary Quotes) Contemporary science is based on the philosophy of materialism, which claims that all reality is material or physical  (Contemporary Quotes) Hip hop music is important precisely because it sheds light on contemporary politics, history, and race. At its best, hip hop gives voice to marginal black youth we are not used to hearing from on such topics  (Contemporary Quotes) The study of history is a powerful antidote to contemporary arrogance. It is humbling to discover how many of our glib assumptions, which seem to us novel and plausible, have been tested before, not once but many times and in innumerable guises; and discovered to be, at great human cost, wholly false  (Contemporary Quotes) ... Fan fiction is a way of the culture repairing the damage done in a system where contemporary myths are owned by corporations instead of owned by the folk  (Contemporary Quotes) If contemporary literary fiction doesn’t read a bit like science fiction then it’s probably not all that contemporary, is it  (Contemporary Quotes) In his scientific genius, man has wrought material miracles and has transformed his world. He has harnassed nature and has developed great civilizations. But he has never learned very well how to live with himself. The values he has created have been predominantly materialistic; his spiritual values have lagged far behind. He has demonstrated little spiritual genius and has made little progress toward the realization of human brotherhood. In the contemporary atomic age, this could prove man’s fatal weakness  (Contemporary Quotes) Although contemporary advertising is relatively young, it already has a considerable tradition. Each new ad is encountered against a background of thousands of earlier ads  (Contemporary Quotes) When you’re surfing you’re not thinking about where you parked the car or what you’re going to do when you grow up or what you’re going to buy when you’ve got lots of money. You know, you’re just there. You’re in the moment. And I think in a contemporary world, that’s a rare privilege  (Contemporary Quotes) At what price do we get our news? The role of economics in defining the nature of contemporary journalism has never been better explained. A valuable, important book for those of us who watch, read, or listen to the news  (Contemporary Quotes) They’re great instrumentalists, singers and songwriters and they have this unique way of blending contemporary with traditional. The result is this beautiful mix of timeless music  (Contemporary Quotes) I don’t like to intellectualize about my acting. I don’t sit around and study the pages of a script over and over again. I don’t worry whether the period is contemporary or three hundred years ago. Human beings are all alike. The main thing in acting is honesty, to feel the humanity and get to the essence of the character. You can’t put anything into a character that you haven’t got within you  (Contemporary Quotes) I love contemporary poetry because it moves between what we call poetry and what we call philosophy. It joins these fields and makes writing more natural, as in how it is lived in the person. We don’t separate thinking from feeling in real life, so why should we separate it in writing?  (Contemporary Quotes) New materials are one of the great afflictions of contemporary art. Some artists confuse new materials with new ideas  (Contemporary Quotes) I don’t see boundaries between styles, such as modern or contemporary. I’ve collected each piece from a different experience or period of my life  (Contemporary Quotes) Thus, if a composer wants to produce music that is relevant to his contemporaries, his chief problem is not really musical, though it may seem to him to be so; it is a problem of attitude to contemporary society and culture in relation to the basic human problem of learning to be human  (Contemporary Quotes) The dissolution of the pictorial into sheer texture, into apparently sheer sensation, into an accumulation of repetitions, seems to speak for and answer something profound in contemporary sensibility  (Contemporary Quotes) Cubism is not a manner but an aesthetic, and even a state of mind; it is therefore inevitably connected with every manifestation of contemporary thought. It is possible to invent a technique or a manner independently, but one cannot invent the whole complexity of a state of mind  (Contemporary Quotes) Do we need recourse to a happier state before the law in order to maintain that contemporary gender relations and the punitive production of gender identities are oppressive?  (Contemporary Quotes) The agriculture we seek will act like an ecosystem, feature material recycling and run on the contemporary sunlight of our star  (Contemporary Quotes)
