Famous quotes containing the words operating and/or systems:

    “Go on then in doing with your pen what in other times was done with the sword; shew that reformation is more practicable by operating on the mind than on the body of man.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “No civilization ... would ever have been possible without a framework of stability, to provide the wherein for the flux of change. Foremost among the stabilizing factors, more enduring than customs, manners and traditions, are the legal systems that regulate our life in the world and our daily affairs with each other.”
    —Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
