Text Quotes
Technological society leads to increasing numbers of people who cannot adapt to the inhuman rhythm of modern life with its emphasis on specialization. A class of people is growing up who are unexploitable because they are not worth employing even for the minimum wage. Technological progress makes whole categories of people useless without making it possible to support them with the wealth produced by the progress (Modern Quotes)
The world calls for and expects from us simplicity of life, the spirit of prayer, charity towards all, especially towards the lowly and the poor, obedience and humility... Without this mark of holiness, our word will have difficulty in touching the heart of modern man. It risks being vain and sterile (Modern Quotes)
Above all, we must awaken to and overcome the great hidden anthropocentric projection that has virtually defined the modern mind: the pervasive projection of soullessness onto the cosmos by the modern self’s own will to power (Modern Quotes)
You take a sound, any sound, record it and then change it’s nature by a multiplicity of operations. You record it at different speeds; you play it backwards; you add it to itself over and over again. You adjust filters, echoes, acoustic qualities…you produce a vast and subtle symphony. It’s a sort of modern magic. We think there’s something in it. Some musicians believe it may become an art form in its own right (Modern Quotes)
Under chattel slavery and feudalism, exploitation was concrete and personalized in the producer’s relationship with his master. The slave and peasant knew exactly who was screwing them. The modern worker, on the other hand, feels a pounding sensation, but has only a vague idea where it is coming from (Modern Quotes)
The same way that mid century modern architecture was in the 50s, I want to be as a human being. New. Different. Challenging the old. Function over frivolity. Clean living. Clean lines (Modern Quotes)
I’ve never known, at least a modern historical instance, where the truth wasn’t superior to distortion in every way (Modern Quotes)
I don’t like technology and all that. I’m a farm boy. I would rather live in that time when you had to provide for your family. I don’t know. I’m a country kid, so I don’t like modern technology (Modern Quotes)
You know I have about the same interest in jewelry as I have in politics, horse racing, modern poetry, and women who need weird excitement – none (Modern Quotes)
The modern computer with all its various gadgets and wonderful electronic facilities now makes it possible to preserve and reinvigorate all the cultural richness of mankind (Modern Quotes)
There is not way that you can have a decent life as a man if you aren’t awake and aware every moment. Show up for your own life. Don’t pass your days in a stupor, content to swallow whatever watery ideas modern society may bottle feed you through the media, satisfied to slumber through life in an instant gratification sugar coma. The most extraordinary gift you’ve been given is your own humanity, which is about consciousness. So honor that consciousness (Modern Quotes)
When I design a collection I strive to make a woman feel as special as the delicate creation she is wearing; take her to an enchanted time and place where women are princesses and magnificent goddesses. In today’s modern world we need to pause and indulge in beauty (Modern Quotes)
Modern capitalism, organising the reduction of all social life to a spectacle, cannot offer any spectacle other than that of our own alienation (Modern Quotes)
A modern building should derive its architectural significance solely from the vigour and consequence of its own organic proportions. It must be true to itself, logically transparent, and virginal of lies or trivialities (Modern Quotes)
Equal interchange of goods and service between buyer and seller is the keynote of tomorrow’s business world when the vision of the modern business man awakens him to the wisdom of writing that policy into his code of ethics (Modern Quotes)
The most serious charge that can be brought against modern benevolence is that it encourages the perpetuation of defectives, delinquents and dependents. These are the most dangerous elements in the world community, the most devastating curse on human progress and expression (Modern Quotes)
The artist is always a servant, and is perpetually trying to pay for the gift that has been given to him as if by miracle. Modern man, however, does not want to make any sacrifice, even though true affirmation of self can only be expressed in sacrifice (Modern Quotes)
I am equally excited about the possibilities that music making holds for all people and it’s ability to heal what seems to me a chronic imbalance in modern life (Modern Quotes)
The modern tradition of equating death with an ensuing nothingness can be abandoned. For there is no reason to believe that human death severs the quality of the oneness in the universe (Modern Quotes)
In modern political society it is probably a fact that national leadership can heighten foreign crises to the point where war becomes almost inevitable and public approval, at least for a time, automatic (Modern Quotes)
We are living in modern times throughout the world and yet are dominated by medieval minds (Modern Quotes)
Our most modern sin is that we do not love the world enough. We have exiled the holy from this realm so we can turn its mountains into money (Modern Quotes)
In modern societies, some members of ethnic minority groups do not want to feel compelled to heed the voices of their communities when participating as citizens (Modern Quotes)
No idea is so antiquitated that it was not once modern. No idea is so modern that it will not some day be antiquitated... to seize the flying thought before it escapes us is our only touch with reality (Modern Quotes)
Revolutions can no longer be achieved by minorities. No matter how energetic and intelligent a minority may be, it is not enough, in modern times at least, to make a revolution. The cooperation of a majority, and a large majority too, is needed (Modern Quotes)
There is nothing for the modern man or woman to fear about most cases of cancer. Nothing except delay (Modern Quotes)
The most basic decision a modern politician must make is whether to be aggressive or conciliatory (Modern Quotes)
Politics, as any observer of the modern world knows, is the enemy of economics, everywhere and always (Modern 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 (Modern Quotes)
It is not possible... to concentrate enough military planes with military loads over a modern city to destroy that city (Modern Quotes)
