Famous quotes containing the word discovery:

    “The discovery of the North Pole is one of those realities which could not be avoided. It is the wages which human perseverance pays itself when it thinks that something is taking too long. The world needed a discoverer of the North Pole, and in all areas of social activity, merit was less important here than opportunity.”
    —Karl Kraus (1874–1936)

    “There is a great discovery still to be made in literature, that of paying literary men by the quantity they do not write.”
    —Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)

    “The discovery of Pennsylvania’s coal and iron was the deathblow to Allaire. The works were moved to Pennsylvania so hurriedly that for years pianos and the larger pieces of furniture stood in the deserted houses.”
    —For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
