Famous quotes containing the words noise and/or factor:
“Sweet bird, that shunn’st the noise of folly,
Most musical, most melancholy!”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
