Modern Quotes

Ironing boards are a classic example of something I find horrible about modern society: the excitementation, for want of a better word, of mundane things. Funny ironing board covers - I hate them Picture Quote #1

Copland was one of the first American composers to forge a truly modern style of American classical music while also making use of American popular music - including jazz Picture Quote #1

I go back and research, say, every reference to the Gorgons, and I find what the classical writers said about them and it’s so much richer than you might get in an average Greek mythology text. I feel like an archaeologist - I’m dusting off these things that people have not seen for thousands of years and bringing them into the modern world Picture Quote #1

There’s an old saying, We can mess it up and God cleans it up. I haven’t noticed a deity of any sort cleaning up our messes. We’re going to have to do it ourselves, particularly since we have created most of these problems just by the genius and creativity that we’ve expressed and experienced here in this modern period. We’ve done it, and we’ve got to straighten it out Picture Quote #1

But I think it’s quite clear in my work that my orientation isn’t political or doesn’t come out of modern politics Picture Quote #1

I never define depression, clinical or otherwise. It’s the basis of most life, it seems to me, in the modern world. We’re all depressed Picture Quote #1

I have the soundtrack for ‘A Clockwork Orange,’ which is kind of cool. I guess I don’t really end up buying a lot of modern soundtracks. Another soundtrack I love is from a French movie called ‘Betty Blue.’ it has some really melancholy piano work Picture Quote #1

I adore the challenge of creating truly modern clothes, where a woman’s personality and sense of self are revealed. I want people to see the dress, but focus on the woman Picture Quote #1

The fact is that co-operation between independent countries - to our mutual advantage - is the way of the modern world Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

The Philippines and the U.S. have had a strong relationship with each other for a very long time now. We have a shared history. We have shared values, democracy, freedom, and we have been in all the wars together in modern history, the World War, Second World War, Cold War, Vietnam, Korea, now the war on terrorism Picture Quote #1

The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual. People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society. Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work Picture Quote #1

All of the great prophets of modern times have come from the desert and were uneducated: Mohammed, Jesus and myself Picture Quote #1

I love Japan. I love the collision of the modern and ancient worlds coming together in that place. It’s so high-tech and cool Picture Quote #1

All too often, personal connections are brushed aside for the sake of convenience in a fast-paced world Picture Quote #1

The dynamic drives of modern economic growth, in the countries that entered the process ahead of others, meant a reaching out geographically; and the sequential spread of the process, facilitated by major changes in transport and communication, meant a continuous expansion to the less developed areas Picture Quote #1

In the early days of the Russian Revolution in 1917, I was completely in sympathy with it. I felt that it established a new era in the history of the modern world. I was so overwhelmed by it that, if people made any unfriendly comment, I would vigorously defend it. If people condemned the Communist party, I would speak in its defense Picture Quote #1

Full Circle integrates the indigenous and modern practices, bringing individuals, community and organizations together as indispensable collaborators realizing a co-creative, sustainable and fulfilling future Picture Quote #1

Modern problems proliferate and remain unsolved because we spend so much time trying to deal with societal and world problems without first dealing with family and community problems. If we organized for normal families and communities - if these two groups provided the functions they are designed for - world problems would diminish and fade out in two or three generations Picture Quote #1

I think computer science, by and large, is still stuck in the Modern age Picture Quote #1

I’m fascinated by the idea that genetics is digital. A gene is a long sequence of coded letters, like computer information. Modern biology is becoming very much a branch of information technology Picture Quote #1

Everything in modern civilization is based on this concept of time which is not really valid Picture Quote #1

This modern mania for interfering in other’s lives, usually under the guise of health and safety concerns, is highly irritating and counterproductive. Down with the nanny state Picture Quote #1

It’s funny, but to me, when you go to a concert hall and hear electronic pieces from the 60s, I think they sound really dated. But when an orchestra plays a piece from that period, and it’s going to sound different every time, it feels more modern to me Picture Quote #1
