Text Quotes
There’s a whole lot of America that looks at each other and says, ‘Well, there’s 340 million people living in America. Isn’t there somebody other than a Bush or a Clinton who can be president in these modern times?’  (Modern Quotes) Unemployment determination in a modern economy was the main subject area of my research from the mid-1960s to the end of the 1970s and again from the mid-1980s to the early 1990s.  (Modern Quotes) Progressive policies implemented since the early 1900s launched America into the modern age and created a vibrant middle class.  (Modern Quotes) I’m never going to be a modern gal. I love colonial. I love early American. I love a big rectangular piece of brown furniture on a hardwood floor.  (Modern Quotes) The early settlers amazed her--they had pluck, they led lives of sweaty drama. Theirs was a world of corsets and whipping posts and indentured servitude. People worked the land and died in ungainly ways. Modern life, in comparison, seemed a cinch.  (Modern Quotes) If one wanted to find a modern symbol of personal freedom, the motor car is right there near the top of the list. But a car has come to mean much more than that. It has become a powerful statement about who you are and how much you earn.  (Modern Quotes) Modern science says: ‘The sun is the past, the earth is the present, the moon is the future.’ From an incandescent mass we have originated, and into a frozen mass we shall turn. Merciless is the law of nature, and rapidly and irresistibly we are drawn to our doom.  (Modern Quotes) I think the East India Company represents what we would think of as a very modern approach to the world where everything was counted, every penny was counted.  (Modern Quotes) The development of physics in the twentieth century already has transformed the consciousness of those involved with it. The study (of modern physics) produces insights into the nature of reality very similar to those produced by the study of eastern philosophy.  (Modern Quotes) The Middle Eastern woman is sophisticated; she is modern. She knows fashion more than anyone else, and she is really sexy, and she does know how to live fashion, and I think we can all learn from each other.  (Modern Quotes) In a way, being born is a sort of ecological contagion. When you have longevity of family, we remember our grandfathers and maybe our great-grandfathers. We somehow don’t have the capacity in modern life to remember further than that. All of the ramifications of their lives have an effect on us, and we’re not aware of it.  (Modern Quotes) We can build a new modern electric grid. That’s a lot of jobs; that’s a lot of new economic activity.  (Modern Quotes) With the sole exception of President Bill Clinton, whose ‘bridge to the 21st century’ evoked the vision and optimism of other great Democratic presidents of the 20th century, such as FDR and John F. Kennedy, pessimism about America’s economic future has been the hallmark of modern progressivism.  (Modern Quotes) Never before in modern times has so much of the world been simultaneously hit by a confluence of economic and financial turmoil such as we are now living through.  (Modern Quotes) Modern warfare is by no means merely a matter of military operations. Economic affairs stand together with them in the first rank of the factors of importance.  (Modern Quotes) The problem of the modern economy is not a failure of a knowledge of economics; it’s a failure of a knowledge of history.  (Modern Quotes) What happened in the Western world was that Plato ceased to be the way people thought. Aristotle was rediscovered, and the modern, educated world moved toward Aristotelian thinking.  (Modern Quotes) Truth be told, our modern education systems crush the very spirit they claim to instill  (Modern Quotes) I don’t know about you, but all this modern technology that’s supposed to save us time and effort has actually ended up making things more complicated in my life, eating up extra time.  (Modern Quotes) The conjunction of effort, concentration and balance in asana forces us to live intensely in the present moment, a rare experience in modern life.  (Modern Quotes) People are now layering all kinds of different things together. Eighteenth century, 19th century, rustic, modern. Three dimensional printed pieces, very high end technological pieces, but mixed with local artisan stuff.  (Modern Quotes) The 2004 Election marks the first time in modern political history that Republican voter turnout matched Democratic turnout in a presidential election year.  (Modern Quotes) This is what happens, when, for the first time in modern history, a candidate resorts to lawsuits to try to overturn the outcome of an election for president.  (Modern Quotes) Some may wonder whether part of the harvest of this invisible pollution (electromagnetic radiation) may be the comparative rarity of visionary experience in the modern world, and the predominence of a removed, overanalytical, repelling ‘onlooker’ intelligence in its place, resembling that of the (Martin) Amis hero (who will not see because he cannot feel). If this is so, such an intelligence has produced conditions favoring its evolution and survival.  (Modern Quotes) The gesture of taking the watch from the pocket and looking at the time is very elegant for a man, but if I was going to create a pocket watch, I wanted it to be very modern. I didn’t want to do old-fashioned.  (Modern Quotes) Elizabeth Taylor has reinvented herself and her image time and time again. The results have often helped redefine modern fashion.  (Modern Quotes) But some great records are are being made with today’s technology and there are still great artists among us. Likewise there are artists today who are so reliant on modern technology, they wouldn’t have emerged when recording was more organic.  (Modern Quotes) Spectacle is the sun that never sets over the empire of modern passivity  (Modern Quotes) I think what’s happened in the modern world, there’s a lot of people that sound very smart and it’s very compelling and alluring, but it leaves you empty.  (Modern Quotes) He didn’t ask Where will you spend eternity? as religious the-end-is-near picketers did but rather, With what, in this modern democracy, will you meet the demands of your soul?  (Modern Quotes)
