Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or progress:
“You must have been warned against letting the golden hours slip by. Yes, but some of them are golden only because we let them slip.”
—J.M. (James Matthew)
“Our civilization is characterized by the word “progress.” Progress is its form rather than making progress being one of its features. Typically it constructs. It is occupied with building an ever more complicated structure. And even clarity is sought only as a means to this end, not as an end in itself. For me on the contrary clarity, perspicuity are valuable in themselves.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
