Heavy Machinery

Famous quotes containing the words heavy and/or machinery:

    O kinsmen of the Three in One,
    O kinsmen, bless the hands that play.
    The notes they waken shall live on
    When all this heavy history’s done;
    Our hands, our hands must ebb away.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    There has been something crude and heartless and unfeeling in our haste to succeed and be great. Our thought has been “Let every man look out for himself, let every generation look out for itself,” while we reared giant machinery which made it impossible that any but those who stood at the levers of control should have any chance to look out for themselves.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
