Ordinary Real

Famous quotes containing the words ordinary and/or real:

“The real accomplishment of modern science and technology consists in taking ordinary men, informing them narrowly and deeply and then, through appropriate organization, arranging to have their knowledge combined with that of other specialized but equally ordinary men. This dispenses with the need for genius. The resulting performance, though less inspiring, is far more predictable.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

“The real drawback to “the simple life” is that it is not simple. If you are living it, you positively can do nothing else. There is not time.”
