Text Quotes
The modern rule is that every woman should be her own chaperon  (Modern Quotes) I love Modern Family but it’s among a handful of favorite shows  (Modern Quotes) The success that the Tolkien books had redefined modern fantasy  (Modern Quotes) Modern man is battered by the fundamental forces of his own psyche  (Modern Quotes) The story of Sodom is God’s reminder to the modern world  (Modern Quotes) One reassuring thing about modern art is that things can’t be as bad as they are painted  (Modern Quotes) The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles, but to irrigate deserts  (Modern Quotes) Modern morality and manners suppress all natural instincts, keep people ignorant of the facts of nature and make them fighting drunk on bogey tales  (Modern Quotes) The moral, as Mr. Drawlight explained it, was that if Mr. Norrell hoped to win friends for the cause of modern magic, he must insert a great many more French windows into his house  (Modern Quotes) In modern society most of us don't want to be in touch with ourselves; we want to be in touch with other things like religion, sports, politics, a book - we want to forget ourselves. Anytime we have leisure, we want to invite something else to enter us, opening ourselves to the television and telling the television to come and colonize us  (Modern Quotes) Reality TV was to me the worst form of entertainment - the modern equivalent of paying sixpence to watch lunatics howling at the wall down at the local madhouse  (Modern Quotes) The modern scientist has lost God amid the wonders of His world; we Christians are in real danger of losing God amid the wonders of His Word  (Modern Quotes) Loneliness is the price we have to pay for being born in this modern world, so full of freedom, independence and our own egotistical selves  (Modern Quotes) With our loss of the sense of majesty has come the further loss of religious awe and consciousness of the divine Presence. We have lost our spirit of worship and our ability to withdraw inwardly to meet God in adoring silence. Modern Christianity is simply not producing the kind of Christian who can appreciate or experience the life in the Spirit. The words, "Be still, and know that I am God, " mean next to nothing to the self-confident, bustling worshipper  (Modern Quotes) It would not be a good place for the heroine of a modern novel to stay at. The heroine of a modern novel is always “divinely tall,” and she is ever “drawing herself up to her full height.” At the “Barley Mow” she would bump her head against the ceiling each time she did this  (Modern Quotes) The right to demand the best and refuse the worst and do so not by virtue of your wealth, but your equal status as citizen, thats precisely what the modern Labour Party should stand for  (Modern Quotes) Modern disillusion is unlikely to last forever, and nothing rings so hollow as the angst of yesterday  (Modern Quotes) I think we're living in an age which despises humanity and despises bravery and doesn't need bravery because modern warfare has rather gone beyond bravery. It is a kind of warfare where people are fighting enemies they never see, killing people of whom they know nothing  (Modern Quotes) In too many modern churches there is no emphasis on theology at all. There is a kind of justification by works or by keeping up with modern trends - anything that will drag in a few more people  (Modern Quotes) That is all there is to it. No doubts, no discussion of earlier affairs, no to-ing and fro-ing, no physical experiment beyond a kiss, none of the complex voodoo which is thought necessary in even the most perfunctory modern novel to clap two ninnies together  (Modern Quotes) The modern writer is too often a theseus so enamored of the grotesque appearance and strange cavortings of the Minotaur that he has decided to make his permanent abode in the Labyrinth, and to accept the Minotaur's laws as his own  (Modern Quotes) Not all readers are prepared, at all times, to make independent judgments. But the failure of modern education to equip them to do so even when they have the inclination creates a serious gap in modern culture  (Modern Quotes) It is not my intention to denounce modern education. If it is bad, it may be said that all education is bad which is not self-education, and quite a lot of self-education is going on today - some of it in our schools, under the very noses of the teachers!  (Modern Quotes) The whole religious complexion of the modern world is due to the absence from Jerusalem of a lunatic asylum  (Modern Quotes) Aristocrats need not be rich, but they must be free, and in the modern world freedom grows rarer the more we prate about it  (Modern Quotes) 'Beauty' is a currency system like the gold standard. Like any economy, it is determined by politics, and in the modern age in the West is is the last, best belief system that keeps male dominance intact  (Modern Quotes) They say miracles are past; and we have our philosophical persons, to make modern and familiar, things supernatural and causeless  (Modern Quotes) That's the definition of 'success' for the modern Democrat Party. As many people dependent on government as possible is the objective  (Modern Quotes) The tragedy of modern man is not that he knows less and less about the meaning of his own life, but that it bothers him less and less  (Modern Quotes) Modern man must descend the spiral of his own absurdity to the lowest point; only then can he look beyond it. It is obviously impossible to get around it, jump over it, or simply avoid it  (Modern Quotes)
