Text Quotes
Nothing happens just because we are aware of modern day slavery, but nothing will ever happen until we are  (Modern Quotes) It’s a really weird thing, modern divorce. I found out I was getting divorced on television. That was kind of weird  (Modern Quotes) The apparent physical stability of reefs belies an underlying natural turmoil of growth, death and destruction of calcareous organisms. Much like a modern city, reefs are constantly being rebuilt and torn down at the same time. Corals are the bricks, broken pieces of plant and animal skeletons the sand, and algal crusts and chemical cements the mortar. Reef growth is determined by the production, accumulation, and cementation of all this calcareous stuff into solid limestone  (Modern Quotes) As I often say, we have come a long way from the days of slavery, but in 2014, discrimination and inequality still saturate our society in modern ways. Though racism may be less blatant now in many cases, its existence is undeniable  (Modern Quotes) The modern city consists of... dark, narrow streets full of gasoline fumes, coal dust, and toxic gasses, torn by the noise  (Modern Quotes) No big modern war has been won without preponderant sea power; and, conversely, very few rebellions of maritime provinces have succeeded without acquiring sea power  (Modern Quotes) How can a modern anthropologist embark upon a generalization with any hope of arriving at a satisfactory conclusion? By thinking of the organizational ideas that are present in any society as a mathematical pattern  (Modern Quotes) Sin does not always drive us to drink; more often it drives us to exhaustion. Tiredness is equally as debilitating as drunkenness. Burnout is slang for an inner tiredness, a fatigue of our souls. Jesus came to forgive us all of our sins, including the sin of busyness. The problem with growth in the modern church is not the slowness of growth but the rushing of growth  (Modern Quotes) Modern death is a matter of bright rooms and hard machines. Live long enough, and you might be filed away in a nursing home, your history scoured away, your life winnowed down to a few items on the table and some pictures of people who don’t come around enough. When you are about to pass on, there is no quiet to attend you: busy fuss and professional zeal strive to bring you back, nail you to the soft cross of the rented bed  (Modern Quotes) In my opinion the hectic and almost frantic pace of modern living is a clear sign of the fear we have of being and of life. And as long as this fear exists in a person’s unconscious, he will run faster and do more so as not to feel his fear  (Modern Quotes) In our modern world today, we may seem like drowning men because of the loss of much of our spiritual tradition  (Modern Quotes) Clearly it’s not easy for women in modern society, no matter where they live. We still have to go the extra mile to prove that we are equal to men. we have to work longer hours and make more sacrifices. And we must emotionally protect ourselves from unfair, often vicious attacks made on us via the male members of our family  (Modern Quotes) Modern man is a prisoner who thinks he is free because he refrains from touching the walls of his dungeon  (Modern Quotes) Thanks to modern medicine we are no longer forced to endure prolonged pain, disease, discomfort and wealth  (Modern Quotes) Modern agriculture has been accurately described as a way of turning oil into food. As the price of oil continues to rise, so will the price of food  (Modern Quotes) I’m making music the way I would have done before modern equipment and music recording  (Modern Quotes) Despair is typical of those who do not understand the causes of evil, see no way out, and are incapable of struggle. The modern industrial proletariat does not belong to the category of such classes  (Modern Quotes) I love the shape of cars. They are very inspiring as modern pieces of machinery. I can’t drive, but I do like the look of them  (Modern Quotes) One might say the computer is being used to program the child. In my vision, the child programs the computer, and in doing so, both acquires a sense of mastery over a piece of the most modern and powerful technology and establishes an intense contact with some of the deepest ideas from science, from mathematics, and from the art of intellectual model building  (Modern Quotes) In a modern loft, you can’t just fill a space with furniture. Each piece has to be perfect  (Modern Quotes) That a modern battleship of 48,000 tons would have to defend itself against wood and fabric biplanes with its main armament was a salutary reminder of the changing face of sea warfare  (Modern Quotes) A singular fact about modern war is that it takes charge. Once begun it has to be carried to its conclusion, and carrying it there sets in motion events that may be beyond men’s control. Doing what has to be done to win, men perform acts that alter the very soil in which society’s roots are nourished  (Modern Quotes) I never really enjoyed getting a portfolio together then sending it out; whereas, putting up the website is quite an enjoyable experience. The net’s just a much faster and more modern way to distribute things, and you have to embrace it  (Modern Quotes) The microwave oven is one of the modern objects that convey the most elemental feeling of power over the passing seconds... If you suffer from hurry sickness in its most advanced stages, you may find yourself punching 88 seconds instead of 90 because it is faster to tap the same digit twice  (Modern Quotes) The only protection as a historian is to institute a process of research and writing that minimizes the possibility of error. And that I have tried to do, aided by modern technology, which enables me, having long since moved beyond longhand, to use a computer for both organizing and taking notes  (Modern Quotes) I began with dance, doing ballet at 3, then tap, jazz, modern. Then I sang in church choirs, learned how to play clarinet and drums, sang with rock bands and only then did I get into musical theatre  (Modern Quotes) There’s this certain caliber of dancing I was striving for when I was younger, and it’s very hard for me to go back and just do it for fun. But I take all other kinds of classes: I take jazz classes, modern classes, and I love doing that instead of going to the gym. The gym is not very much fun  (Modern Quotes) Childhood vaccines are one of the great triumphs of modern medicine. Indeed, parents whose children are vaccinated no longer have to worry about their child’s death or disability from whooping cough, polio, diphtheria, hepatitis, or a host of other infections  (Modern Quotes) In the modern world there’s no such thing as formality. A dinner jacket used to mean a tuxedo, you know?  (Modern Quotes) I am afraid I shall have to give up my trade; I am far too inert to keep up with organic chemistry, it is becoming too much for me, though I may boast of having contributed something to its development. The modern system of formulae is to me quite repulsive  (Modern Quotes)
