Famous quotes containing the words nature and/or technology:

    “And thus they give the time, that Nature meant
    For peaceful sleep and meditative snores,
    To ceaseless din and mindless merriment
    And waste of shoes and floors.”
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Primitive peoples tried to annul death by portraying the human body—we do it by finding substitutes for the human body. Technology instead of mysticism!”
    —Max Frisch (1911–1991)
