Gaining Popularity

Famous quotes containing the words gaining and/or popularity:

“So we see
That all things change, one nation gaining strength
While others perish.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

“A more problematic example is the parallel between the increasingly abstract and insubstantial picture of the physical universe which modern physics has given us and the popularity of abstract and non-representational forms of art and poetry. In each case the representation of reality is increasingly removed from the picture which is immediately presented to us by our senses.”
—Harvey Brooks (b. 1915)
