Renaissance/spread

Famous quotes containing the words renaissance and/or spread:

“People nowadays like to be together not in the old-fashioned way of, say, mingling on the piazza of an Italian Renaissance city, but, instead, huddled together in traffic jams, bus queues, on escalators and so on. It’s a new kind of togetherness which may seem totally alien, but it’s the togetherness of modern technology.”
—J.G. (James Graham)

“The more rapidly truth is spread among mankind the better it will be for them. Only let us be sure that it is the truth.”
