Famous quotes containing the words operations, task and/or force:
“A sociosphere of contact, control, persuasion and dissuasion, of exhibitions of inhibitions in massive or homeopathic doses...: this is obscenity. All structures turned inside out and exhibited, all operations rendered visible. In America this goes all the way from the bewildering network of aerial telephone and electric wires ... to the concrete multiplication of all the bodily functions in the home, the litany of ingredients on the tiniest can of food, the exhibition of income or IQ.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“The task of the artist at any time is uncompromisingly simple—to discover what has not yet been done, and to do it.”
—Craig Raine (b. 1944)
“Every man who possibly can should force himself to a holiday of a full month in a year, whether he feels like taking it or not.”
—William James (1842–1910)
