Construct System

Famous quotes containing the words construct and/or system:

“Those are my enemies: they want to overthrow and to construct nothing themselves. They say: “All that is worthless”—and want to create no value themselves.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“The pace of science forces the pace of technique. Theoretical physics forces atomic energy on us; the successful production of the fission bomb forces upon us the manufacture of the hydrogen bomb. We do not choose our problems, we do not choose our products; we are pushed, we are forced—by what? By a system which has no purpose and goal transcending it, and which makes man its appendix.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
