Famous quotes containing the words production and/or commerce:

    “The society based on production is only productive, not creative.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “The Great Society is a place where every child can find knowledge to enrich his mind and to enlarge his talents.... It is a place where the city of man serves not only the needs of the body and the demands of commerce but the desire for beauty and the hunger for community.... It is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their goals than the quantity of their goods.”
    —Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
