Famous quotes containing the words capture, production and/or species:

    “No place is so strongly fortified that money could not capture it.”
    —Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    “Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.”
    —Gus Hall (b. 1910)

    “Our species successfully raised children for tens of thousands of years before the first person wrote down the word “psychology.” The fundamental skills needed to be a parent are within us. All we’re really doing is fine-tuning a process that’s already remarkably successful.”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
