Text Quotes
I see myself as a performer and that applies to a Greek drama or a modern comedy  (Modern Quotes) For most of modern life, our strong talents and desires for group effort have been filtered through relatively rigid institutional structures because of the complexity of managing groups. We haven’t had all the groups we’ve wanted, we’ve simply had the groups we could afford. The old limits of what unmanaged and unpaid groups can do are no longer in operation.  (Modern Quotes) Unfortunately, it has come to my attention that the modern world is sorely lacking in imagination. And grown-ups are the biggest culprits of all.  (Modern Quotes) Mass application of technological innovations, which constitutes much of the distinctive substance of modern economic growth, is closely connected with the further progress of science, in its turn the basis for additional advance in technology.  (Modern Quotes) The origins of the modern West are often seen in the Enlightenment of the seventeenth and eighteenth century, but the roots of the Enlightenment can be found in habits of mind cultivated in Athens, Rome, and Jerusalem, and the institutions that grew from them.  (Modern Quotes) For a century and a half now, America and Japan have formed one of the great and enduring alliances of modern times.  (Modern Quotes) When I auditioned for drama college, they asked me to do my Shakespeare. I couldn’t do it. They asked me to do my modern, and I couldn’t do it. They asked me if I had a song prepared, and I said ‘No,’ so I sang ‘Happy Birthday.’ And I did a reasonable improvisation, a reasonable one, nothing special at all. I don’t know how I got in, but I did.  (Modern Quotes) Fundamentally, the basis of all modern progress is the efficiency of labor. And the only sure road to restored prosperity is through the thrift and hard work of our people as a whole.  (Modern Quotes) We need to reach out to small ‘l’ liberal voters who have a modern outlook on life, who want a party that is hard-headed on the economy - more credible on the economy than Labour - but more socially progressive and fairer than the Conservatives.  (Modern Quotes) Listening to hard rock on the subway doesn’t work for me, especially modern hard rock. Driving in L.A. helped me to understand the appeal of that music.  (Modern Quotes) The danger in having modern music tied to a period piece is that hearing something may take you out of the moment.  (Modern Quotes) In modern studios, we’re so used to becoming little dictators; you’re used to the fascism of having complete control over every element.  (Modern Quotes) I have a few friends that have inspired me since I was a young kid. When I watch old films or modern movies - particularly ‘Gladiator,’ ‘New Jack City’ and ‘The Skin I Live In’ - I’ll also get ideas.  (Modern Quotes) Industrial agriculture freed many people to pursue lives their parents and grandparents could never have. It made America modern.  (Modern Quotes) As modern society is formed against the backdrop of a permanent war zone, a carceral state and hyper-militarism, the social stature of the military and soldiers has risen.  (Modern Quotes) Modern medical advances have helped millions of people live longer, healthier lives. We owe these improvements to decades of investment in medical research  (Modern Quotes) Our modern, deadline-a-day lifestyle overtaxes our adrenal glands, which end up overproducing cortisol, which in turn makes it nearly impossible to sleep and can put you at risk for a heart attack. Raised cortisol also boosts your insulin levels, which can cause you to pack on the pounds, especially around the midsection.  (Modern Quotes) Advertising is the spur on the flank that keeps modern company-helping economy out of hand till the day common sense is restored, if ever it happens.  (Modern Quotes) Russia does not have a modern economy: it’s a petro-power. The only thing it sells that the world wants to buy is oil and natural gas. When was the last time anyone bought a Russian computer? A Russian car? A Russian cell phone? Russia is so dependent on high energy prices that if oil falls below $100 a barrel, the Kremlin can’t meet payroll.  (Modern Quotes)
