Advanced

Famous quotes containing the word advanced:

    Predatory capitalism created a complex industrial system and an advanced technology; it permitted a considerable extension of democratic practice and fostered certain liberal values, but within limits that are now being pressed and must be overcome. It is not a fit system for the mid- twentieth century.
    Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)

    This seems to be advanced as the surest basis for our belief in the existence of gods, that there is no race so uncivilized, no one in the world so barbarous that his mind has no inkling of a belief in gods.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    We have advanced by leaps to the Pacific, and left many a lesser Oregon and California unexplored behind us.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
