Famous quotes containing the word content:

    Any so-called material thing that you want is merely a symbol: you want it not for itself, but because it will content your spirit for the moment.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    What is most original in a man’s nature is often that which is most desperate. Thus new systems are forced on the world by men who simply cannot bear the pain of living with what is. Creators care nothing for their systems except that they be unique. If Hitler had been born in Nazi Germany he wouldn’t have been content to enjoy the atmosphere.
    Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)

    Societies have always been shaped more by the nature of the media by which men communicate than by the content of the communication.
    Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
