Famous quotes containing the words age and/or system:

More active-valiant or more valiant-young,
More daring, or more bold, is now alive
To grace this latter age with noble deeds.”

“I confidently predict the collapse of capitalism and the beginning of history. Something will go wrong in the machinery that converts money into money, the banking system will collapse totally, and we will be left having to barter to stay alive. Those who can dig in their garden will have a better chance than the rest. I’ll be all right; I’ve got a few veg.”
—Margaret Drabble (b. 1939)
