Atomic Time

Famous quotes containing the words atomic and/or time:

“The pace of science forces the pace of technique. Theoretical physics forces atomic energy on us; the successful production of the fission bomb forces upon us the manufacture of the hydrogen bomb. We do not choose our problems, we do not choose our products; we are pushed, we are forced—by what? By a system which has no purpose and goal transcending it, and which makes man its appendix.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

“Now is the time for drinking [nunc est bibendum], now is the time to make the earth shake with dancing.”
—Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)
