Famous quotes containing the words individual, system and/or pages:

    “An individual is an encloser. Time and space, liberty and necessity, truth and thought, are left at large no longer.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “You and I ... are convinced of the fact that if our Government in Washington and in a majority of the States should revert to the control of those who frankly put property ahead of human beings instead of working for human beings under a system of government which recognizes property, the nation as a whole would again be in a bad situation.”
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    “Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff to any degree of fineness; but, nevertheless, what you get out depends on what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat flour from peascods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)
