Famous quotes containing the word inventions:

    New inventions can and will be made; however, nothing new can be thought of that concerns moral man. Everything has already been thought and said which at best we can express in different forms and give new expressions to.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    By whatever means it is accomplished, the prime business of a play is to arouse the passions of its audience so that by the route of passion may be opened up new relationships between a man and men, and between men and Man. Drama is akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to help us to know more, and not merely to spend our feelings.
    Arthur Miller (b. 1915)

    In America, the geography is sublime, but the men are not: the inventions are excellent, but the inventors one is sometimes ashamed of.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
