Famous quotes containing the words european, intellectual, property and/or network:

    Of course, in the reality of history, the Machiavellian view which glorifies the principle of violence has been able to dominate. Not the compromising conciliatory politics of humaneness, not the Erasmian, but rather the politics of vested power which firmly exploits every opportunity, politics in the sense of the “Principe,” has determined the development of European history ever since.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    Our loss put six feet under ground
    Is measured by the magnolia’s root;
    Our gain’s the intellectual sound
    Of death’s feet round a weedy tomb.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Open the doors of opportunity to talent and virtue and they will do themselves justice, and property will not be in bad hands.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    A culture may be conceived as a network of beliefs and purposes in which any string in the net pulls and is pulled by the others, thus perpetually changing the configuration of the whole. If the cultural element called morals takes on a new shape, we must ask what other strings have pulled it out of line. It cannot be one solitary string, nor even the strings nearby, for the network is three-dimensional at least.
    Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
