Produced

Famous quotes containing the word produced:

    “In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed—they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock!”
    —Orson Welles (1915–84)

    “The human tendency to regard little things as important has produced very many great things.”
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    “I admit that the generation which produced Stalin, Auschwitz and Hiroshima will take some beating; but the radical and universal consciousness of the death of God is still ahead of us; perhaps we shall have to colonize the stars before it is finally borne in upon us that God is not out there.”
    —R.J. Hollingdale (b. 1930)
