Famous quotes containing the word organization:

    “One of the many reasons for the bewildering and tragic character of human existence is the fact that social organization is at once necessary and fatal. Men are forever creating such organizations for their own convenience and forever finding themselves the victims of their home-made monsters.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “In any great organization it is far, far safer to be wrong with the majority than to be right alone.”
    —John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

    “Prostitution is the most hideous of the afflictions produced by the unequal distribution of the world’s goods; this infamy stigmatizes the human species and bears witness against the social organization far more than does crime.”
    —Flora Tristan (1803–1844)
