Cycle Shape

Famous quotes containing the words cycle and/or shape:

“The cycle of the machine is now coming to an end. Man has learned much in the hard discipline and the shrewd, unflinching grasp of practical possibilities that the machine has provided in the last three centuries: but we can no more continue to live in the world of the machine than we could live successfully on the barren surface of the moon.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)

“There’s nothing constant in the world,
All ebb and flow, and every shape that’s born
Bears in its womb the seeds of change.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
