Famous quotes containing the words college, world and/or series:

    I had a classmate who fitted for college by the lamps of a lighthouse, which was more light, we think, than the University afforded.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I did not live until this time
    Crown’d my felicity,
    When I could say without a crime,
    I am not thine, but Thee.

    This carcase breath’d, and walkt, and slept,
    So that the World believ’d
    There was a soul the motions kept;
    But they were all deceiv’d.
    Katherine Philips (1631–1664)

    If the technology cannot shoulder the entire burden of strategic change, it nevertheless can set into motion a series of dynamics that present an important challenge to imperative control and the industrial division of labor. The more blurred the distinction between what workers know and what managers know, the more fragile and pointless any traditional relationships of domination and subordination between them will become.
    Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
