Systems Group

Famous quotes containing the words systems and/or group:

“What is most original in a man’s nature is often that which is most desperate. Thus new systems are forced on the world by men who simply cannot bear the pain of living with what is. Creators care nothing for their systems except that they be unique. If Hitler had been born in Nazi Germany he wouldn’t have been content to enjoy the atmosphere.”
—Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)

“For me, as a beginning novelist, all other living writers form a control group for whom the world is a placebo.”
