Famous quotes containing the words conditioned and/or response:
“Our brains are no longer conditioned for reverence and awe. We cannot imagine a Second Coming that would not be cut down to size by the televised evening news, or a Last Judgment not subject to pages of holier-than-Thou second- guessing in The New York Review of Books.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“I am accustomed to think very long of going anywhere,—am slow to move. I hope to hear a response of the oracle first.”
