Famous quotes containing the words medieval, total and/or war:

    “The medieval university looked backwards; it professed to be a storehouse of old knowledge.... The modern university looks forward, and is a factory of new knowledge.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)

    “... geometry became a symbol for human relations, except that it was better, because in geometry things never go bad. If certain things occur, if certain lines meet, an angle is born. You cannot fail. It’s not going to fail; it is eternal. I found in rules of mathematics a peace and a trust that I could not place in human beings. This sublimation was total and remained total. Thus, I’m able to avoid or manipulate or process pain.”
    —Louise Bourgeois (b. 1911)

    “A war undertaken without sufficient monies has but a wisp of force. Coins are the very sinews of battles.”
    —François Rabelais (1494–1553)
