Continuous Group Actions

Famous quotes containing the words continuous, group and/or actions:

    “There was a continuous movement now, from Zone Five to Zone Four. And from Zone Four to Zone Three, and from us, up the pass. There was a lightness, a freshness, and an enquiry and a remaking and an inspiration where there had been only stagnation. And closed frontiers. For this is how we all see it now.”
    —Doris Lessing (b. 1919)

    “Just as a person who is always asserting that he is too good-natured is the very one from whom to expect, on some occasion, the coldest and most unconcerned cruelty, so when any group sees itself as the bearer of civilization this very belief will betray it into behaving barbarously at the first opportunity.”
    —Simone Weil (1910–1943)

    “When our actions do not,
    Our fears do make us traitors.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
