Famous quotes containing the words extension and/or ladder:
“Predatory capitalism created a complex industrial system and an advanced technology; it permitted a considerable extension of democratic practice and fostered certain liberal values, but within limits that are now being pressed and must be overcome. It is not a fit system for the mid- twentieth century.”

“We make a ladder for ourselves out of our vices when we trample them.”
