Famous quotes containing the word modern:
“In the deeper layers of the modern consciousness ... every attempt to succeed is an act of aggression, leaving one alone and guilty and defenseless among enemies: one is punished for success. This is our intolerable dilemma: that failure is a kind of death and success is evil and dangerous, is—ultimately—impossible.”
—Robert Warshow (1917–1955)
“The modern state no longer has anything but rights; it does not recognize duties any more.”
—Georges Bernanos (1888–1948)
